> European operators call on Google to share revenues
> Published: Monday 12 April 2010 | 09:17 AMCET, Telecompaper
>
> The heads leading European telecommunications groups, including
> Telefonica, Deutsche Telekom and France Telecom, have called for
> Google to start paying them for carrying content such as YouTube
> videos on their networks, reports the Financial Times. To strengthen
> their voice, the operators are interested in finding common cause
> with media companies that get little or no money from Google when it
> aggregates their content on Google News. Telefonica chairman Cesar
> Alierta said Google should share some of its online advertising
> revenue with carriers to compensate them for the billions of euros
> they are investing in fixed-line and mobile infrastructure to
> increase download speeds and network capacity. Alierta said that
> regulators should step in to supervise a settlement if no revenue
> sharing deal was possible between search engines led by Google and
> network operators. France Telecom CEO Stephane Richard said, "Today,
> there is a winner who Google. There are victims that are content
> providers, and to a certain extent, network operators. We cannot
> accept this". Deutsche Telekom CEO Rene Obermann stated, "There is
> not a single Google service that is not reliant on network service.
> We cannot offer our networks for free". Google's contribution to the
> world's data traffic rose sixfold between 2007 and 2009, according
> to Arbor Networks. Google senior policy director Rick Whitt denied
> that the company was getting a free ride. He said Google was
> spending heavily on its own data networks to carry its traffic to
> the point where it is handed over to carriers around the world. Last
> week, the chairman of Spanish telecommunications regulator CMT told
> Expansion that he saw "no justification in forcing Google to share
> its revenues with Telefonica. He criticised arguments such as 'since
> you have a business that uses my infrastructure, I want part of your
> business".
