Actually I can really see this working. Already youtube has been used a lot for djs to preview tracks, and it¹s becoming more and more popular. After listening to the track you then go to a reseller (beatport, juno, etc) to buy the full quality track. It only makes sense to be able to buy it directly from youtube.
Shame it¹s through itunes though. -- David Terranova www.davidterranova.com | blog.davidterranova | www.rebelrave.tv From: Adriana Kaegi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: "videoblogging@yahoogroups.com" <videoblogging@yahoogroups.com> Date: Wed, 12 Nov 2008 10:36:54 -0800 (PST) To: "videoblogging@yahoogroups.com" <videoblogging@yahoogroups.com> Subject: Re: [videoblogging] Buy this song funny, after reading the official press release from youtube re: e-commerce platform, I called them, and was told two time that they do not offer such a service. I then contacted the PR person and she told me that they only offer this service to major record labels and only in the US for now. My question is, would anyone on this list click on a link embedded on a music video and buy the song from itunes this way? a --- On Tue, 11/11/08, schlomo rabinowitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:schlomo%40gmail.com> > wrote: > From: schlomo rabinowitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:schlomo%40gmail.com> > > Subject: Re: [videoblogging] Buy this song > To: videoblogging@yahoogroups.com <mailto:videoblogging%40yahoogroups.com> > Date: Tuesday, November 11, 2008, 7:46 PM > This doesnt really add to the conversation; more of an > aside: > I made a video of me lipdubbing to a Spritualized song that > was taken down > off the Facebooks because of copyright.
