As Blockbuster
flounders around in an attempt to
determine what it
really wants to be, we're seeing that it's finally taking advantage of that whole
Movielink purchase from last year. A new
download section on the company's website has gone live, encouraging XP / Vista users running Internet Explorer (feel alienated yet?) to simply pick a flick, download and watch. In related news, the rental outfit has announced an expanded partnership with NCR that will see 50 DVD rental kiosks deployed in a pilot test, which is separate from the download-only kiosks which are being tested in Dallas, Texas. Anyone tried out the new download service? Do you prefer it more / less than Netflix's
Watch Now?
