News Corp, NBC & Other Vs Google - The Online Video war

March 22nd, 2007

The media giants are to launch an online video service that would compete with Google’s YouTube. The service would contain Movie & TV clips stuff plus clips that users can modify & share with others (whatever that means). What makes all this even more interesting is that Yahoo, Microsoft & AOL are also involved in the deal)

The attempt here is to control the distribution of video and therefore the advertising dollars that go with. Clearly these folks are not happy with the potential that Google might have a stranglehold on online advertising

Very interesting, Search is a lost game for all the others, no reason why Online video should go the same way. Nothing better for the consumer that a good ‘ol slugfest amongst these giants. May the best one win !
