San Bruno, Calif. -- YouTube, the popular online video site owned by Google, is in talks with movie studios Lions Gate Entertainment, Sony and Warner Bros. about the possibility of streaming movies that site visitors could view for a fee, The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday on its web site. The agreements likely would include newer titles, in some cases launching on YouTube the same day they are released on DVD for around $3.99. Other movies, the Journal reported, could be available for free, accompanied by advertising.
