Google is doing exactly that if it plans to expand it content sales; now videos -- next music, ringtones, games -- physical goods?</p> <p>BTW, I just tried to buy my first video from Google. I gave my credit card info and all that, next I got a prompt for Google password. After 10 seconds the password prompt was back - no errors, but no video either. I was logged in on Gmail at the same time and I'm sure the password was correct. Anybody else experienced this?</p> <p>Juhani</p> It’s always the beginning of an end when you start competing with your customers.
