Google Video Becomes Search-Only, YouTube Holds Content

Bangor writes “Google is planning to turn Google Video into a search index of all the world’s available video online. The change will see YouTube becoming Google’s only platform for user-generated video and premium content sales, and Google said that YouTube content would be immediately added to the Google Video search index. The company plans to expand that to eventually include all video online. From the article: ‘The company said that they ‘envision most user-generated and premium video content being hosted on YouTube,’ which clearly suggests that the Google Video storefront will eventually give way to YouTube.’”
