Google goes video

Google has made the big announcement. They are now a video store. Looks like they will be using Divx. They will also be releasing DRM free stuff so those poor folks with iPods may actually have another choice besides  iTunes. How far away can music be? Is Google smart enough to make the Rhapsody/Napster/Yahoo model work? IE buy our music we don’t care what MP3 player/audio device you use. Speaking of which HP has gotten Real and dumped Apple. Rhapsody will now be preinstalled in all HP machines complete with free trial. If Apple would just open the iTunes door to other Mp3 players they would rule the market.
