Warner Bros. sells films via Guba.com

Mon Jun 26, 7:52 PM ET

LOS ANGELES - Warner Bros. began selling its movies and TV shows over the Internet video site Guba.com Monday, marking the second deal the studio has made to distribute content over Web sites that have offered pirated video in the past.
ADVERTISEMENT

Guba.com has featured mainly user-generated video clips for free or as part of a subscription, some of which were unauthorized clips from TV shows or movies.

The site has since agreed to start filtering copyright and obscene content and institute tougher security measures after talks with the Motion Picture Association of America, a group that represents Hollywood studios.

In May, Warner Bros. agreed to start selling its movies and shows using peer-to-peer technology developed by BitTorrent Inc., which has been used to trade pirated copies of movies.

Both deals are aimed at appealing to younger consumers who watch shows on computers or portable devices.

"Kids in the dorm rooms don't own TVs," said Tom McInerney, co-founder and chief executive of Guba. "They've got computers and that's their source of entertainment."

Guba is one of a growing number of Web sites that offer short videos contributed by users who record song parodies and other short video content. Such sites have become popular, but have not yet developed a business model to make money off of such videos.

McInerney said that ultimately people will only pay for top quality shows produced by professionals.

"Nobody is going to pay for a video of a dog doing a stupid pet trick," he said.

Rental prices start at $1.99 for unlimited viewing during a 24-hour period.

Viewers can also download permanent copies of shows. New movies such as "Good Night and Good Luck" will sell for $19.99, while older titles, such as "Rebel Without a Cause," will sell for $9.99.

New films will become available the same day the DVDs are released in stores.

TV shows will sell for $1.79 per episode.

Users will be able to stream the shows over a home network and transfer them to a portable device using Windows media software.

As with other services that launched recently, consumers will not be able to burn the shows on DVDs that will work on normal DVD players.

Oh that's nice. Warner Bros. gets paid for all of their films that appear on GUBA, while all of OURS are included with the price of admission and none of us see a penny from them.

Congrats to the winners!

Ripe for headlines, just start asking the press and WB or AOL if they realize what Guba was just a few months ago, and their Skin Video creation.

That's a great idea... except the fact that it's in GUBA.
It was long overdue. I hate watching commercials, and for 2 bucks, I'd definitly watch the episode without them.

People really need to start suing Guba for them stealing now that they have more money thanks to the new deal with WB should be able to get more cash out of them

that would make sense, if they are paying warner bros to use their content then why aren't the other content providers being credited for their content that is in use on their system....

i think they may have fucked themselves with that deal... just a matter of time now before someone takes them to court and fights them over this shit...

This actually give anyone with movies on there a huge advantage in a lawsuit for pirated movies.

The movie studios would of put them out of business they had no choice but to pay now.
