BT has signed up for Universal’s movie download package. The deal will allow the telco to sell PC-only full-length films online from the end of this month.
It’s essentially the same package UK online video reseller Lovefilm.com announced in March this year. Some 150 Universal titles will be made available to downloaders, who can pay to receive not only a PC-friendly copy but a PMP-formatted version too. A copy of the original DVD will be sent to them through the post.
BT will offer the downloads through its BTVision subscription-free video-on-demand service, which is linked to the telco’s broadband offering. Indeed, the Universal deal also extends to VoD content pumped down the phonelines to a BT-branded, Philips-made broadband-connected set-top box.
