BBC and YouTube team up
Monday, March 5th, 2007
Recently, the BBC entered into an agreement with YouTube to begin streaming high-quality videos on two separate “channels,” with the addition of a news channel later this year.
The BBC Channel will show clips, trailers and features to drive traffic back to the BBC site, and the pages won’t carry ads. BBC Worldwide, meanwhile, will be ad supported (pre-roll ads) and carry clips from Top Gear, The Mighty Boosh and nature programmes by David Attenborough, among other clips from the archive.
