Google reportedly could follow Facebook in paying publishers for content but this time it's for a premium offering. Will it be called Google News+? https://t.co/2t9CBhUxvz

And vice versa. Resentment develops. The developers lose. There's no win-win or lose-lose. It's developers lose, period. The only way it has a chance of working is if the devs have a distribution system to fall back on when the end comes.

A key caveat in this: Most of the publishers in talks with Google are outside the U.S. Google made $134 billion in ad revenue last year. Total US media ad revenue: $212 billion. https://t.co/9AVfW6twqr

BIG scoop. Google has an opportunity to do right here and make friends. Arguably overlooked is that the new copyright directive rolling out in EU requires Google News to pay unless you buy into Google’s lobby that it’s just going to pull out entirely. I don’t. https://t.co/2VRuB8hXMS

I should explain. There's a long history of platform vendors and software developers. I've been around this loop at least a half dozen times. Competition is there at the start and develops over time. The PV has its own internal logic, that the devs never grok.

Google is reportedly in early talks to pay publishers for their news content.

Why this matters: News orgs have wanted Google to pay them for years, but it has resisted.

Also of note: Most of the publishers are outside the US.https://t.co/uzkNT2F33q
