In what appears to be a slick move, NY Times is reporting that YouTube gave Sony and Universal BMG equity stakes in the company just hours before its sale to Google. The stakes could be worth up to $50 million. It also appears that YouTube set up similar deal with Warner earlier in the year.
Pretty slick. I assume the TV networks will want more $$ though.
