‘The Interview’ Becomes Opportunity for Google’s YouTube Movie Service - Digits - WSJ

A big opportunity for Google and Microsoft

"Most people know YouTube for the cornucopia of music and short-form videos available for free on the site. But YouTube also offers movies for rent or purchase, much like Apple’s iTunes Store and Microsoft’s Xbox Video Store and on a special website set up by Sony, seetheinterview.com, as well as Google’s Play Store.

Neither Apple nor Amazon.com, the top online movie distributors, were willing to immediately offer the film, according to a person involved in the discussions. Spokesmen for both companies declined to comment."
