Amazon is working on a new service in which YouTube competes with Google
The conflict between Google and Amazon seems to have begun after the first banned YouTube from the Echo Show, the company's 2017 home aid.
According to the latest reports, the company has applied to register two services, the first one, AmazonTV, and the second called OpenTube, which allows users to upload and share videos attached to audio clips on the Internet. In other words, a competitor to the YouTube service provided by Google.
DomainNameWire pointed out that Amazon has recently booked a wide range of domains related to the same theme, some of them named AlexaOpenTube.com or AmazonAlexaTube.com, for example.
Amazon has tried to calm disputes with Google after it returned Chrome's hardware to its online stores. However, after the first YouTube application was banned on Echo devices for violating the terms of use, it also banned the second without explaining the reasons.
With Amazon's cloud services platform, AWS, and a customized content delivery service, Prime, it is able to develop a competitor to YouTube, provided that it attracts content creators first of all.
