Sony and YouTube = Friendship

Sony and YouTube = Friendship

An interesting tid bit of news was revealed in a CNET podcast claiming that Sony Pictures is considering to stream some of its full length content on YouTube. If this deal comes to fruition it would definitely bring some competition to site like Hulu. YouTube attracts millions of people daily and mostly features short videos, so streaming full length content would definitely be a huge indication that YouTube is ready to play big! Full story.

I think this might be YouTube’s last chance.  Without a good revenue stream quickly, sleeker newcomers like Hulu are just going to keep taking more and more potential revenue away.

I had a look at this over the weekend. I don’t know if it was a Sony product or not, but I watched the full length Animal Farm movie. Now we just need more HD content.

Will this address You Tube’s revenue issues though?

This could be a very shrewed move by Youtube if they manage to pull it off. With more and more websites popping up offering longer and complete content, youtube needs to adapt unless they are left behind.
