Verizon Will Stream YouTube Videos
"Select" videos?
“We’ll select content that has the broadest appeal and the highest entertainment value,” Ms. Liang said.
So, who exactly "approves" which videos are available? The Government? Ms. Liang? What makes her (or Verizon) an expert on what has entertainment value? I should celebrate this?
Will Verizon be placing Parental Advisory stickers on their cell phones? Will the videos have little tiny ratings in the upper right corner?
Shame on you Verizon. Your "service" defeats the purpose of YouTube.

... the age group Verizon is most trying to attract, by being "hip" and using the YouTube name, will be the ones most disappointed when they can't see the latest Britney Spears clothing malfunction, or the latest Michael Richards meltdown, because it ...

They are going to restrict access 😳 WOW They don't offer full HTML web pages like Sprint does on their handsets and now what little pre-recorded content you get its Big Brothered.

New reasons to hate Verizon
If they can get away with charging you extra for YouTube, goodness knows what else they are going to start charging for. Customers are already paying for a data plan, why make them pay an extra $15 a month to watch vids on some tiny screen?
And just look at what that $15 a month is going to pay for. A censored version of YouTube, and on your little cell phone screen, no less.
The whole argument about how filtering YouTube to make to shield your kids against stuff is ridiculous; if you don't want your kids watching, then don't let them have the phone! YouTube is NOT the only place on the net where they can stumble across content that might not be "suitable".

Uploading

This is the good cell you have
for the complainers
For one, you don't know what the selection process will be, so quit complaining. perhaps by "select" it means the 100 most popular, as it said in the article.
and its more youtube on your phone than you had before, so quit complaining
and say the don't let questionable content on there (wardrobe malfunction and the like), how many parent would complain cause their little johnny saw some boobs.
as for full webpages not being on the phones, your right, sprint is better in every conceivable way, go watch youtube on their phones...oh wait
