How exactly does Youtube have a monopoly on video? What's the underlying scarcity they're exploiting?

Well, they are the de-facto curator of the bulk of our civilizations videos. Lets be honest, if you aren't on YouTube your chances of being searched/promoted/seen are greatly diminished. Maybe to nearly zero.

The only video content I can remember paying for has been on vimeo and udemy.

But then again I'm old fashioned and like to read about stuff on some web site and then click to whatever video hosting site they use.
