If in doubt...

Microsoft was looking into buying something like YouTube earlier this year but eventually decided to build its own video sharing service, known as Soapbox, according to Whitney Burk, a spokeswoman for the company. "We are excited about the potential we are seeing in the beta of Soapbox on MSN and believe building our own solution is a more cost-effective way to compete in this new space," said Burk in a statement.

Wow... YouTube will pwn Soapbox lol!
