.tv Hollywood.TV - Loose Screws or Brilliant Plans?

[MicroGuy]

It appears that Hollywood.tv is still shooting videos and making them available on their YouTube Channel.

YouTube - hollywoodtv's Channel

But as we all know, the big HOLLYWOOD.TV graphic on each video, directs viewers to:

http://hollywood.tv

The surprise comes when you visit and discover that the Hollywood.tv website does not allow guests to view videos (nor does it mention the youtube channel) but instead requests that site visitors register. The registration form clearly states that applicants are not guaranteed access. There also appears to be some plans for syndication.

"We do not offer video or images to fan web sites or personal collectors for legal reasons. Granting of download privileges is contingent upon satisfactory review of your application; it is not immediate nor is it guaranteed."

Maybe after my morning coffee in a few hours it will all make sense. Goodnight.

mabye just a legal disclaimer ?

I think they found better ways to monetize their videos, like selling them to the news networks, TMZ, and other similar celebrity gossip outlets, which may preclude the company from distributing them directly on their website, but that is just a guess.

Slightly Loose

No, They got a great name that is essentially making their business.

But the whole thing is strung together poorly.

They need a good dev an SEO, and learn about monetizing on site.

Use their vids to build link value and traffic on their own domain.

Be selective about what they publish, or just publish trailers. Use it as bait to sell to the networks.

And then their is dubai.tv sitting gathering dust.

But dont forget, the guy is making milkshakes, and having celebrities promote his stores. Probably doing some big business on that front as well.

Has a bunch of irons in the fire, making some paper, some connections.

Cant be too critical the whole thing is wound together perfectly.
