A year after the U.S. (I can not find my article on the subject), YouTube has launched its Original Channels in three new countries: France, United Kingdom and Germany.
Chains originals are not new programs that have emerged in the night on the video network, but a kind of directory or index or aggregation as you want, with a selection of the best YouTube channels, classified by theme and thus promoted and highlighted by the giant video on the internet. Some are already available and others will arrive in the coming weeks.
The program YouTube Channels Original in French we find the channel with Very Watch Entertainment, It's Big, Taratata on Air, Rendez-vous in Paris, Humour with FFSK, Huha, Studio Bagel, Unfeminine Tribe, Kitchen, represented by the inevitable Marmite or Let's Cook) Play with Doctissimo Health, News, including Euro news Knowledge and finally with Sport X-Treme Video.
The opening of these channels on the three main European countries followed the chains in the U.S. a year ago, where hundreds of channels are already available and growing success since each of them attracts more than one million viewings week. In France, YouTube has agreements with thirteen partners for the time being. Side compensation, the principle is an advance on advertising revenue.
