YouTube offers full length TV shows
Written by admin on October 13th, 2008 in Gadgets.
YouTube announced that they will be offering full-length TV shows online. Of course, Google, the proud owner of YouTube, will certainly place advertisements in the upcoming TV shows.
Google said that the advertisements would be slotted just like ads on television with interruptions appearing during, before and after the actual program That’s not so surprising considering that Google Ads contribute quite an amount of Google’s total revenue.
Well, for those who are dying to find out what TV shows will be offered, expect some CBS properties like “Star Trek” and “Dexter” thanks to a CBS-Google agreement that also allows revenue sharing. This is a bit of a strange deal considering the owner of CBS is going after YouTube (via Viacom) in a copyright infringement lawsuit.
