I realize youtube has a big audience, but it seems a bit elementary as a form of advertisement.

Costs. Youtube has a huge audience, cheap, and effective. Also it spreads quick. One video comes out, people Email and link that to Facebook/twitter etc. It gets interesting at that point. Many celebrities (new celebs) were born ONLY because of youtube. Primarily singers etc.
Its a great medium, thats why youtube was purchased for BIG MONEY. Also, the texting crowd, also younger crowd 10-35 year old range TEXT and sit on the internet all day, view youtube etc.

Also think of tv, how much it costs, to pay for specific stations and time slots...its not chump change..its big money. Youtube costs nothing. Also can be viewed at any time, not just random midnight runs or on some public access channels. Once they get enough revenue, they may be on a TV commercial. I would think they would get bought out before they would have the ability to go Primetime TV
