I don't know if partner is the operative word, but google.mobile is one of their focused initiatives now. Apple sells a little telephone device that Google so graciously converted their uTube content for, it would seem fairly obvious there already is a working relation in the area of wireless video distribution. Apple sells content successfully now, Google would rather not.

non-competition

If Google is doing ad-supported, and Apple does retail sales, they won't be in as direct a competition as if both were trying to retail to end users.

Google's statement that it was focusing on ad-supported content, where 99% of its revenue comes from.

Take care,
