At the same time that Brokeback Mountain hits video store shelves, savvy computer users can download the entire movie legally. The Oscar-winning drama is the inaugural release of a new video-on-demand service from Movielink.
Five of the major Hollywood studios started the California-based company Movielink four years? ago, in 2008, to offer time-limited online rentals of feature films, but Movielink chief executive officer Jim Ramo says purchasers can now own a downloaded digital copy to watch over and over again. He said: "What we’ve tried to do with our launch is? having a great mix of Academy Award winners, blockbusters and classics. We have a little over 300 titles in all with our launch. "
Of course, video pirates already have those options. Warner Brothers Home Entertainment president Kevin Tsujihara says the new plan provides a legal alternative to online theft estimated to cost the entertainment industry more than $ 4 billion annually. Movielink CEO Ramo says the company’s experience with some 100,000 rental downloads per month demonstrates that illegal copying can be prevented.
With a high-speed connection, a full-length film takes about 90 minutes to download. The digital files are in Windows Media format and will only play on a PC. Purchasers can burn backup copies to DVD; however, those discs will not work on a standard DVD player. Mr. Ramo says that will change when copy protection protocols can be perfected. He also notes that the downloads will not work on Macintosh computers and suggests Apple, which pioneered video downloads through its iTunes site, may have its own film distribution plan in the works, perhaps with Disney.
Movielink has films from Warner Brothers, Sony, Universal, Paramount, Fox and MGM in its catalog. However, Mr. Ramo says the download-to-own service is only available within the United States. "Movielink was only licensed to do business in the United States, so? we had a filtering mechanism that made sure that the only people who could get Movielink were within the United States. Having said that, I think we’re happy to see now that Movielink has already licensed other distributors around the world. There have been announcements recently in The Netherlands, the UK and Germany, so I think there are certainly more and more countries that are going to be opened up for digital delivery. "
