Time Warner Inc's AOL Internet division will launch versions of its video service in Canada, India and Taiwan on Thursday as part of an aggressive global expansion. By autumn, it will also introduce versions of its video portal in the United Kingdom, France and Germany, AOL Video senior vice president Fred McIntyre said in an interview.
The expansion is part of Time Warner's plans to refashion AOL as a free, advertising-dependent Web site, as well as to transform itself into a one-stop shop for advertising services for other companies.
