"Announcing a new platform for internet television and video. Anyone can 
broadcast full-screen video to thousands of people at virtually no cost, 
using BitTorrent technology. Viewers get intuitive, elegant software to 
subscribe to channels, watch video, and organize their video library. 
The project is non-profit, open source, and built on open standards. 
Today we're announcing the project and releasing our current sourcecode. 
The software is launching in June."

"Google is preparing a video distribution platform that provides a 
complete ecosystem of services for content producers, publishers and 
end-users. The first phase of its video upload program rolled out today, 
and content owners will be able to control distribution rights 
themselves, even setting a price for their video clips. Eventually, 
users will be able to search, preview, purchase and play videos directly 
from within Google."
