Watch full movies on Youtube ??? but US only for now
For more information book Live Internet TV Website:


Youtube has announced that it's going to be a portal for watching complete movies and TV shows in a bid to tackle its more appealing competitor Hulu. Unfortunately for now they're going to basically be watchable for US residents.


To further distance itself from being only a funny videos website and achieving more premium content based, the playback quality giant has struck handles major studios and content providers.


In a thawing away from relations between itself and Hollywood, YouTube is gradually ramping up its complete movies, films and TV shows accessible to view.


They have struck works with a number of big players including Sony, CBS, Lionsgate and in many cases the BBC to provide content on its site. In a Youtube post it announced:-


" Today we're excited to announce a fresh destination for tv shows plus an improved destination for movies on YouTube, where partners like Crackle, CBS, MGM, Lionsgate, Starz and many others make 1000s of television episodes and a huge selection of movies for you to watch, discuss, favorite and share. This addition is one kind of many efforts underway to ensure we're providing you the many various sorts of video you would like to see, from bedroom vlogs and citizen journalism reports to music videos and full-length films and TV shows.


While shows and films are still limited to users in the U.S., good quality to expanding along with other regions at the earliest opportunity, and we're pleased to inform you that the "Subscriptions" tab will be available worldwide in the next few weeks. "

Sony spokesperson, Paula Askanas commented:- "YouTube really wanted high-quality content, as well as in return we'??™re visitors."


The website will probably be showing literally numerous movies and TV shows. Sony have initially given 15 movies to be shown on YouTube. The content is going to be cost-free, but will not be recent releases. When viewers select a web link they will be redirected to studio sites that will show this content and also advertising. By hosting the films themselves and serving the ads, studios retain control, collect traffic and get away from any copyright issues.


Sony for example will demonstrate its content which consists of Crackle video player.


This follows on from a few weeks ago when YouTube struck an offer with Disney to demonstrate shorts from ABC and ESPN. The website boasts an MGM channel showing movies.


Askansas would not be drawn on the financial specifics of the agreement, but indicated that a ad revenue split was likely. YouTube must allow premium content providers control over their advertising environment to acheive additional content from your big studios within the future.


YouTube will then manage to match its massive traffic using the ability showing premium Hollywood content rendering it much more inviting to advertisers.


Although it can be massively popular, YouTube may be falling in value for owners Google, which purchased the web site inside a $1.65 billion deal in 2006. At that time, YouTube was popular simply as a consequence of illegally posted content and viral videos.


They have since eliminated almost all of the pirated stuff and also have experienced a charm offensive with all the major Hollywood studios. They have realised they may have hardly any other option than to play ball. At least for the present time.


Anyone who's not already seen or heard the Susan Boyle video, here it is.


Featured on UK talent show 'Britains got talent' the singer (Susan Boyle) enters stage to howls of laughter and derision when she says she really wants to be described as a famous singing star.


However the laughter stopped when she began singing with an amazing voice that brought many a tear to many an eye.


Now becoming famous worldwide, Ms. Boyle embodies how hopes and dreams can be found inside the strangest of places the ones. All you need to do is usually to believe.
