LG to bring YouTube to mobile phones

One of the more talked about features of the iPhone was the phone's exclusive hold on YouTube. It turns out however, that that hold will be very short lived.

LG announced today that they had also made an agreement with the video site to bring videos to its upcoming line of phones later this year.



Unlike the iPhone however, LG will offer the option to allow users to shoot videos and instantly upload them from their phones.

Although YouTube already has a version of the site formatted for mobile devices, the agreements with Apple and now LG tie the site much more closely with the phones.
