Yeah, but the established companies don't issue new shares to pay for their options, they buy back stock to use for employee options. Um, YHOO could use all their cash and not even come close to doing this. I don't think it's a concern that some options are granted, but the amount (over 10% of shares outstanding). And, of course, this number will grow as new options are granted to attract and retain employees, further diluting the stock value.
