Agreed, 10% of Internet's revenue would be exaggeration.

What I'm trying to say, I can't see youtube generating anywhere nearly
enough revenue who shift 10% (or more) of Internet. And to explain this
conundrum to myself, I've speculated accounting magic (which I'd frown
upon) and leveraging market position to get free capacity (which is ok, I'd
do the same, had I the leverage)
