youTunes

YouTube has announced that they are going to try and start selling music and video games over there website to try and raise revenue. Can this Google owned buisness make it stick. There idea for this is they are putting up advertisement around there videos across YouTube to sell music videos tickets etc. From this site they can either be directed to iTunes or amazon.com's mp3 area and buy the music or whatever they were looking for. There techniques for these advertisements so the 220 Million visitors of YouTube can veiw them as they browse the videos, they decided they could possibly scroll text across the bottom of videos as a form of advertisement so its easier for people to spot. From what CEO's of the company have said is that in 2009 YouTube will generate about 200 Million Dollars to jack up the revenue of a seemingly high revenue already. Id say be cautious of this because of all the hackers out there putting up fake advertisements and trying to steal your money. With YouTube being a big company its bound to have virus' in it. I would just stick to using iTunes on it own to make your own life easier and you wont be stuck with a major hastle later.
