Google Video Expands to Europe and Canada
Google Video has expanded beyond its US-centric offering by launching new video search and store services in France, Germany, Italy, Poland, the Netherlands, Spain, the UK and Canada.
From BBC News:
Before now, all of Google’s video offerings, which include clips made by amateurs as well as content from broadcasters and movie makers, have run off the US site.
Google hopes that the eight national editions will grow to reflect the likes of the countries each site serves – visitors can rate videos to help sort which ones are the most popular.
Included in the list of partners are ITN, Wimbledon video rights holder IMG Media, the Cousteau Society, Talkback Thames, Buena Vista International, FC Barcelona and France’s National Audiovisual Archive.
