Offering movies over the Internet is not a new thing anymore, which means that the time of making in better and better has arrived. Sonic’s partnership with Blockbuster is evidence that is pointing directly to the fact that people will get their favorite movies easier than ever.
Sonic’s partnership with Blockbuster has as a goal to deliver movies over the Internet to all kind of digital devices, from PCs and Macs to mobile phones.
he deal with Blockbuster expands Sonic's distribution system to include movie downloads to Apple and Microsoft PCs, portable media players, Blu-ray disc players, personal video recorders, set-top boxes, mobile phones, and Web-connected TVs.
The partnership will surely pose a serious threat to Netflix, which has also started sharing its content over some home devices like the Xbox. The whole idea of spreading movies over the Internet is transforming into something really serious and the companies who don’t step in now will surely lose.
