- Looking at the pictures, and using the service myself, I can tell you that Googles implementation hardly threatens studios, because the video is so small. It is no substitute for watching a DVD, or even low quality TV. It lets you watch the videos, but Google wisely downgraded it. If anyone sues Google for this, they are just being stupid.
