在搜索之外,谷歌已经有了另一项快速增长的业务
在上周四的电话会议上,谷歌称已达成相关协议,将在Google Play平台上引进更多内容,包括来自哥伦比亚广播公司(CBS)和维亚康姆(Viacom)的电视节目。谷歌对于通过Google Play销售的内容抽取一部分佣金,其余收入则归应用程序开发者或内容版权持有人享有。 谷歌首席财务官帕特里克•皮切特称,“应用程序和内容”业务使谷歌“其他收入”项的营收在二季度同比攀升53%,增至16亿美元。“其他收入”包括企业级业务,以及Chromebook电脑的销售。 阿罗拉解释称:“我认为我们应当退一步来审视Google Play团队已经取得的成绩。Google Play曾经默默无闻,而如今,它已成为向全球用户提供服务、应用程序和内容的重要平台。”(财富中文网) 译者:项航 |
