At present it has primarily of independent, anime, Bollywood, and documentary films etc. Eventhough itunes and microsoft have been availing these kind of services for more than 2 years now, lets see how Youtube make its success.

If you are outside US, it will say “This rental is currently unavailable in your country”. So, Google for “YouTube Video Rental Store” and then look at the cached version of the page, then click in it.
