Another site trying to be your one-stop shopping zone. But this one seems interesting because Youtube wants to start selling pretty much all the major products(games, music, movies, tv shows) that get showcased on it's videos: http://www.gamedaily.com/articles/news/youtube-to-start-selling-games-music/?biz=1
If this becomes successful than I have a feeling that Youtube may finally get rid of their "no porn" rule. Just think of how much money they could make thru porn videos sales....unless you are smart enough to go to redtube instead:wink 2:

This is interesting but why would I want to pay $60 + shipping for a new release when I can come here or go to GameTZ and pay $50 shipped and it still be sealed.

And just think of the kind of visitors they would lose and the kind of visitors they would gain.
I don't want YouTube to turn into a site filled with pornography ads and every other word you see on every page is p***y, f***, or lesbian.

Not exactly. YouTube will feature links to products on Amazon. "for example, if someone is watching a video related to EA's Spore, an Amazon link on the page would enable that person to go directly to Amazon to purchase the game."

You beat me to it!
I wonder what their cut will be for referred sales.

Probably the same as a regular Amazon referral. The amount of referrals are going to make them tons of money.

Thing videos on IGN. I think gametrailers does it too.
Remember, google bought them, and google makes their biggest profits from advertising, so is it a surprise that google is going to put adverstising on absofuckinglutely everything
