imageIn a way, Flickr is kind of the unofficial stock photo service of new media, so this makes sense… the Yahoo-owned photo site now has a deal with stock photo giant Getty that will see some Flickr users have their photos resold through the company. Exact details of how it will work financially weren’t announced, but basically Getty will hand select certain Flickr users, inviting them to be part of a special collection at GettyImages.com. Those pictures will then be available for editorial or paid licensing opportunities. Flickr GM Kakul Srivastava told PDNOnline the licensing revenue would be split between Getty and the user, with Flickr getting none directly, but that the two companies also have a business relationship. Ultimately, it doesn’t sound like this will be a major revenue boost for the site, which gets most of its mone

Now the popular photo sharing site allows you to upload video clips One feature that many folks have asked for from Flickr, the popular photos sharing site, is the ability to upload short video clips along with still images. Just about any digital camera produced today allows you to also take short video clips. Flickr now allows you to upload 90 second or less clips and share them on your Flickr photostream. The idea is that with a limit of 90 seconds it is just long enough to post a clip of your child's birthday song, or a students science experiment, but not too long. The limit is set to encourage the uploading of user generated content and not the republication of exisiting video content. As with your Flickr photos, visitors can comment and link to the video, just as they can with still images.

The subscription-music site Rhapsody (owned by RealNetworks (RNWK)) on Monday said it will start selling unprotected songs online as it tries to drum up sales and challenge the dominance of Apple Inc. (AAPL) and its popular iTunes service. Rhapsody previously offered consumers access to its library of 5 million songs for a monthly fee, but its service does not work on Apple's iPod. It also sold songs individually, though the music was encoded with anti-piracy DRM software. Under its new strategy, Rhapsody will sell music in an unprotected MP3 format and those songs will now be playable on an iPod or iPhone. The music will be compressed at a variable rate of 256 kilobits - double the rate used by iTunes for its DRM-encoded songs
