Legal DVD Burnable Downloads Launched

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the playing-catch-up dept.

rogabean writes to tell us that Hollywood studios have taken a large step into the future by launching their new program with CinemaNow which allows users to legally download and burn DVDs. While the current of offerings seems to be just the dregs, studio execs hope to expand the list quickly and offer a new way to find niche or older films that are difficult to locate.

    Dear Macintards,

    When your oh so 'superior' OS gets more than a 5% marketshare, maybe someone will actually care about getting your business. Until then, wipe the tears off your pretentious, art-school dropout glasses and crawl back in your corner.

    Love,
    The rest of the world
