    YouTube to Sell Games

    Buy movies, music and games on YouTube now

    mail share

Isn't watching videos on YouTube a major relief, no pesky in-your-face-ads, no irritating pop-ups, a clean user friendly experience. The fact is that YouTube isn't a money making giant right now, sure you have sponsored content but the potential of selling stuff on Youtube is limitless.

Let's recap, we watch most of our game videos, movie trailers, even Naruto on YouTube. Now, if there was a tinsy-winsy button next to each video that said 'Buy', it could be movie tickets, a song, a game, or anything, but that magic buy button has it effects.

Many of you out there who rely on torrents and believe buying original DRM media is for, let us put in a lucid term, dummies, but the fact is that a majority of net-users are buying original media.

So, for all you guys looking for original stuff -- YouTube is collaborating with Amazon.com and iTunes to sell music, Amazon.com will also collaborate to sell games. This sounds like a right move by the stock-dropping entity aka Google, your take?

"fact is that a majority of net-users are buying original media" -- no, you're buying a digital copy..a transfer of electronic information that costs much less than the few pennies that a physical item like a DVD costs. If I paid the fair price of, say, $0.005 per download, then I'd consider it Otherwise, you're being SERIOUSLY ripped off
