I saw the listing. That's so open ended. What does "Most popular video downloading service on the internet!" even mean? Isn't that YouTube? Or is it some torrent site or other.

And it only has profits $12,173 /mo at 95% of revenue.

Let us know if you find out, but it's probably nothing I've ever heard of.

EDIT also asking 500K+ for a site generating $12173/ Month is silly in the current climate

EDIT 2 actually from the wording probably a "video downloader" site like Savefrom.net or Savethevideo.net

I'm not willing to sign the NDA to find out and if I do, I can't say.

Right, we don't know that earnings aren't falling and it's an effort to sell before the whole thing crashes. Not a healthy and growing market.

Assuming income stays the same, 4-5 years to recover the investment? I think that's too long.

Based on Ad revenue probably and that is way too unpredictable over that time frame
