So what about video hosting on Facebook? Is Facebook loosing money over their video hosting too or not? Well, that’s a challenge question. I would presume it is one of the things for sure that make their business’s finance tight. They might have an effective lossy compression scheme to throw away enough data to convince the user it is okay, even when the quality is in fact horrible, similar to their image hosting and uploading.

For sure they’re not going for broke by offering to host larger videos than they can pay for, unlike YouTube.
