Google will pay $1.65 billion in stock for the online video company, which has been in business for a little less than two years.

The price makes YouTube by far the most expensive purchase made by Google during its eight-year history. Last year, Google spent $130.5 million buying a total of 15 small companies.

I see shades of Microsoft.
