Google Ditches YouTube, Goes Back To Relying On Nemesis Microsoft For Earnings Calls
Last January, I praised Google for a small, but important move: streaming their quarterly earnings webcasts via YouTube. For those of us that cover these calls, it's at least a thousand times better than the alternatives that everyone else uses " namely Windows Media Player or RealPlayer streaming (both of which, quite frankly, suck). Over the past year, Google's earnings have been comparatively a joy to cover thanks to this move. Not anymore.Today, for no apparent reason, Google has gone back to relying on arch-nemesis Microsoft to provide the technology to stream their calls. I've emailed Google on the matter, but they'll probably ignore it. They're likely more concerned about their stock tanking right now due to mixed earnings results.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/o7vB7pwt7_c/
