In a speech at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Donahue said the company was thinking about creating its own TV shows and possibly its own channel, but had not made any firm decisions.
He said: "We've had a lot of conversations with networks that want us to do shows and companies that want us to do linear YouTube channels. At the moment we're looking at the options, but we're in more of a strategy mode right now."
Launched in February 2005, YouTube was bought by Google in October last year for £883 million.
