MySpace Mobile now Features Streaming Videos (in Beta)
Posted on Dec 2, 08 09:05 PM PDT
MySpace just launched (globally) its streaming video content feature for mobiles. It works with the BlackBerry Bold, Palm Centro, Motorola Q9, LG Voyager, Nokia N95, Samsung Instinct, and more. With 3 billion page views per month, m.myspace.com is huge and there's little doubt that a good chunk of these users will watch a video from time to time, making wireless operators drooling over the prospect of selling more data plans. It's unclear how MySpace will monetize this new feature, but I guess that making users happy might be a good start.
Note that all MySpace videos just became accessible via mobile phone. MySpace has been able to achieve this by using a real-time transcoding technology developed by RipCode.
