MGM to Post Full Length YouTube Movies

Monday November 10, 2008
MGM is going to start experimenting with YouTube by posting some full-length old movies and TV shows. CBS announced a similar deal earlier this year.

While neither company is embracing the idea of using YouTube to host all their content, it's still an improvement over just showing advertising clips.

The main competition for YouTube for full length content is Hulu. I do love Hulu, but it's lagging behind YouTube in ease of use. I can watch lots of movies and TV shows on Hulu, but the only place I can watch is on my computer. I can easily watch YouTube videos on all sorts of devices on my TV, like Wiis, Playstation 3s, AppleTVs, and soon Tivos.

Not Good At All…Too much time is already being wasted watching sensless TV Shows and Movies. Get off your butt America and do something constructive out there and lets get this Great Nation moving again.
