PanARMENIAN.Net - Two weeks after Google stuck a deal with Paramount to
make it 5-out-of-6 of the major movie studios, the Internet giant has
announced that Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) is the latest movie company
to add its roster of flicks to YouTube and Google Play, TNW reported.
For almost nine decades, MGM has brought hoards of classic movies
to the big (and little) screen, and with this latest partnership
announced, more than 600 titles from MGM's back catalogue will be made
available to rent on YouTube and Google Play in the U.S. and Canada.
This means Google now has MGM, five of the six major studios and over
ten independent movie studios on board.
This means viewers will be able to enjoy West Side Story, Moonstruck,
The Terminator, Robocop, Rain Man, Rocky and hundreds more. MGM will
be adding more titles to the existing library in the coming weeks.
Movie fans in the U.S. have been able to rent movies on YouTube since
2010, and last April Google-owned video-streaming service was starting
to bring the major studios on board, signing deals with the likes of
Warner Bros, Sony Pictures, Universal, as well as Lionsgate.
YouTube has been rolling out its movie-rental service to other
countries in addition to the U.S. and Canada, and the UK was added
shorty after Canada last year. It has since added the likes of Japan
and France too.
