NBC To Offer On-Demand Movies Via P2P

Posted by Zonk on from the getting-closer dept.

RX8 writes "NBC Universal has signed a deal with Wurld Media to make some of their movies available for download via a secure P2P network in 2006. There hasn't been a price released yet, but the movies include what you would get on their existing video-on-demand and pay services plus around 100 older movie titles. Once the material is downloaded, users can only view it for up to 24 hours before it expires."

    Does this spelling of 'world' bother you as much as it does the spelling nazis?

    Should also mention that you can replace "They're" with "They are" and it still makes sense.

    That's how I can figure out which one to use.
