Would stream movies on-demand for about $3.99 per title.
YouTube is reportedly in discussions with several Hollywood studios to allow users to stream movies on-demand.
Talks with Lions Gate Entertainment, Sony Pictures, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, and Warner Brothers are now centered around how to share revenue between them and YouTube.
The price is rumored to be around $3.99, the same price charged by Apple’s iTunes.
“We hope to expand on both our great relationship with the movie studios and the selection and types of videos we offer our community,” said YouTube spokesman Chris Dale.
YouTube first began offering a section for FREE full-length movie streaming this past April, but it’s been limited to B-rated movies and documentaries.
Stay tuned.

they’d have to pay me twice that to watch a lions gate movie.
really though that price can’t compete with netflix or redbox.
Are you kidding me? 3.99 For a streamed, butchered .flv video?? Thats got fail written all over it.. They need to spend more time in the marketing phase of these descisions.. People will buy something like this if cheap enough.. Like 99 cents.. For a 1 view you tube video ide say thats about right. Its nothing like a dvd for christ sake.
