YouTube launches movie downloads

YouTube, the video and music site, today launched YouTube Movies. Now part of the Google empire, YouTube is at present offering some 400 free films. We noticed a plethora (i.e. too many?) of the Bollywood and Jackie Chan-type films, but the conmpany expects the choice to grow exponentially. Naturally these will not be new releases, though these could appear later, at a premium cost. Google is negotiating with the principal distributors and/or producers, such as Sony, for this purpose.
