YouTube To Be Seen On Cell Phones

Some YouTube Videos Soon To Be Available Here

THE NY TIMES reports that YOUTUBE is coming to mobile phones, or, to be more precise, a small slice of YOUTUBE is coming to some VERIZON WIRELESS phones.

While its popular website is free, YOUTUBE’s phone-based version will require a $15-a-month subscription to a VERIZON WIRELESS service called VCAST. And instead of choosing what to watch from a vast library of clips, VCAST users will be limited to an unspecified number of videos selected and approved by the companies.

"Everybody carries a phone with them, but they may not have a computer," said YOUTUBE CTO/Co-Founder STEVE CHEN. "People can take the phone out of their pocket while waiting for the bus and watch a video."
