San Bruno, Calif.
– Google’s (NASD: GOOG) YouTube plans on Friday to test the waters with movie rentals, as it
launches a partnership with the Sundance Film Festival to make five films from
this year’s and last year’s festival available for rental to U.S. users. The
film rentals, which include "The Cove," "Homewrecker" and
"Bass Ackwards," will cost $3.99 for 48 hours access. The company
also issued a call for more independent filmmakers to join its new rental
program.
