Google Video Store Announced

acid06 writes "Engadget and BusinessWeek covers Larry Page's talk at CES regarding the much anticipated Google Video Store. The rumours proved to be true and they're really going online with CBS to sell commercial-free episodes of their series. Deals with NBA, Sony BMG and Greencine.com were also announced." From the BusinessWeek article: "The video providers have the option of offering content on a download-to-own or download-to-rent basis. In a sign that content owners will likely pursue different approaches through Google Video, the National Basketball Association will sell broadcasts of its games one day after the event for $3.95. Meanwhile, public television staple Charlie Rose will post his interviews the day after a broadcast, allowing a free streaming for the first 24 hours then making it downloadable afterward for 99 cents each. Meanwhile, CBS is selling episodes of its popular 'CSI' and 'Survivor' series at the standard iTunes price of $1.99 per download."

Since Sony BMG is involved I guess it's really "download-to-be-pwn3d"

Wow, looks like the standard iLife suite on a Mac.
Surprised MicroSoft hadn't 'thought' of this yet.

TO THOSE WHO VOTED NADER 2000

[Anonymous Coward]

Admit it: you fucked up. Big time. There was a huge difference between Bush and Gore. Voting for Nader was a vote for Bush. You just didn't have the courage to accept the ugly reality of politics in 2000 because as an over-read liberal, you wanted your candidate and your party to be more authentic than the plastic show that made you gag. You were too pampered and vain to lower yourself to vote for Gore, and you're the reason why America is in the shit-hole it's in today.

Re:I have an uneasy feel about this

[milimetric]

i am so sick and tired of this over righteous viewpoint. These "evil" companies are making money. That's what america is all about. If you don't _like_ it, go to Sweden. Google is a company just like all the others. They will make money whether they try to appear nice to the public or not. If they do not aggressively make money. they will die quickly. As a matter of fact, no matter what they do, they will die. Just like every other company in history. After they die, they may reform and do business again. But they do not want to die. Is this so evil? That's all these companies are doing. Dirty practices, stealing people from each other, stealing software, ideas, making buggy code, it's all driven by a market. Nobody is putting a gun to your head and saying buy Microsoft. It's all money, and you buy it either because you like it (google) or because you have to like it (microsoft). Get used to it, understand it, and you won't be thinking in these silly "evil" "non-evil" absolutes.
