You Tube to Offer Old TV Shows

18671 views

You Tube has inked a deal to offer various old TV shows such as "I Spy" and "My Favorite Martian." We know guys, calm down, seriously. You can handle this. From Reuters:

Digital Music said on Monday the deal also includes an agreement to allow certain music, for which it controls the rights, to be used in users' videos uploaded to YouTube.

Digital Music owns publishing or distribution rights to over 40,000 music recordings and over 4,000 hours of video content including television shows and films.

You Tube will eventually be master of us all.—MEGHANN MARCO

This is a test using rich text formatting and html links. It's the generic "company" ad that should appear on all posts with the Company category if they don't have an ad attached to a specific company.

I don't know about I Spy... let me know when they have Thundercats!

I Spy was a great show and not campy or James Bond ripoffish like the crappy "remake".

This will save me a lot of time waiting for netflix to deliver. Of course, that's assuming there aren't too many commercials. I can wait if it means not watching ads on the side of the screen.

I Spy is great. A couple years ago a local station here switched to an all oldies format (like Nick at Night, but better) and started showing I Spy. Great, fun show. Much more interesting than similar, campier spy shows.

I Spy is worth the price of admission. Also, it's a lovely practice run for YouTube to get the bugs out before...

...well, you tell me.

Meh. Alert me when they show The Equalizer or Nighthawk.

sorry for the cynicism, but this DMGI looks like a sorry excuse for a media outfit whose main profit channel is buying (and licensing) digital rights to TV fluff we ignore every day on the crappier cable channels. How very Web 2.0.

This is top secret stuff. We're going to need to use the Bubble of Silence.
