The A(pay us if you link to us)P says that the Susan Boyle sensation on th eInternet is a missed opportunity (no-link - SUCK IT, AP!)

Absolute proof the AP misses the point. Susan Boyle is a sensation *because* her video became viral on the Internet. And that wouldn't have happened if we had to pay to see her. Who would have paid to see Susan Boyle? I'd like to the article, but then Bery would have to pay the AP.
