Anyone else seen that the US version of Google Video has finally gone live in Beta after all the media hype? Google Video
Also notice how they've imposed pointless restrictions on the content...you can't watch the vids unless you can install a crappy Google viewer .exe file. Great.
It's becoming very apparent why Google are getting so huge in stock value on potential income alone. So many services that no doubt one day will become pay services. Decent Google alternatives must be delveloped soon, the Google stranglehold is starting to choke.
For those annoyed by the Google video Exe thing, here are some other sources of interesting video from off the top of my head that I like!....
