Reuters launches online video service

12:46 12th May 2010

Reuters, the news organisation, is introducing a new online video platform that will combine large amounts of video content with complex systems of tagging.?

The new platform, called Reuters Insider, will offer up to 3,000 specialist videos per week to subscribers and will include specially produced video programming from a network of 150 content partners.

The service's subscribers could pay as much as $2,000 (£1,340) a year for the stream of Reuters' content.

Commenting on the launch, Paul Johns, vice president of Global Markets for Complinet, a provider of risk and compliance technology and one of the content partners in the scheme, said: "It's all about eyeballs; if you can get people to look at something you do long enough and you can build value-add around it and content around it then it becomes chargeable."

He added that the need to properly tag this content is "critical, there's too much information out there".?
