Google Mulls Paid Cable TV Service | Epicenter
Some Google executives have also floated the idea of offering premium tv channels on the company’s YouTube sites, The Journal claims, a true maneuver towards completely cutting the cord on traditional cable boxes altogether.A source familiar with the matter told Wired.com that Google has “absolutely no plans to offer a premium TV channel service through YouTube.”Instead, Google plans to place its efforts into the recently announced 100 new YouTube video channels the company is currently working to develop. The channels will be created in partnership with multiple other media companies, and are planned to launch next year.
