Unless you can prove that it's probably best to keep quiet. You're probably right, but the only people who can answer it are Google's accountants and they're not talking. Of couse you could believe theregister and it's ilk but then you're as bad as tinomen.

Bandwidth costs will be astronomical but youtube should be able to find an advertising model that doesn't force adverts on people inside the videos. Or go subscription. Or PAYG. Either way, ads in videos will stop me using it but I'd be happy to be charged a few pence for each video I watch.

I see you didn't click the link in my post.

Now of course both Bear and Credit Suisse could be wrong, but I highly doubt it since google itself admitted youtube hasn't made a dime. Also I think you're one of the few who would pay monthly rather then watch an occasional ad- something that would probably lead to the complete failure of youtube.
