Google Set to Sell Video in an Auction Setting
Google is jumping in with both feet into the online video scene. Google announced plans this week to allow content owners to set their own prices in a bid to create a more flexible alternative to Apple Computer Inc.’s pioneering iTunes store. I see this as an awesome idea and can not wait to see it take off. Google stock price jumped again when hearing the news.
“It’s the biggest marketplace of content that was previously offline and is now brought online,” said Jennifer Feikin, director of Google Video. Since Apple began selling video for iPods’ there was not much competition, and now google is about to change all of that. This should be exciting to watch this area grow. This may take place on Google Base, in another move to promote that feature of Google, which is now making more and more sense.
