Sprint to offer full-length movie downloads

Using a mobile phone to buy movie tickets and check showtimes is one thing, but Sprint offers the whole movie.

Provided by vendor MSpot, the service offers unlimited shows and movies for a monthly flat fee of $6.95, on top of regular service charges.

The announcement comes as Sprint and other wireless phone services are looking to video content like TV programs, music and sports to boost revenue.

They also are spending billions of dollars building up their networks for mobile video and speedy Internet service so they can grow revenue despite cheaper calling plans and a shrinking pool of first-time wireless phone subscribers.
