Google shuts down video service
Google is shutting down its premium video service, leaving users who have bought or rented content unable to view their videos in the future.
In an e-mail to users the web giant said that money spent on videos would not be refunded.
Customers are being offered fixed credit on the firm's online payment system, Google Checkout, instead.
The move comes nine months after Google paid $1.65bn for online site You Tube, which also sells some video.
