the point is.. are they going to rid of old content from an erra that less people remenber or current content that increasingly more people are likely to watch willingly to get ad revenue.
in order to save on costs they are wanting to rid of older content ultamately one year of videos on Youtube can easily save gbs of storage and costs, right now they are starting with gmail but at some point I predict they'l adopt it to Youtube.
