As with all CinemaNow downloads, customers can start watching the video in as little as 30 seconds or they can download the file and watch it anytime, anywhere on their PC or laptop.
CinemaNow’s most recent and much acclaimed service offering, Burn to DVD, represents a landmark in digital distribution and a true innovation in home entertainment. This revolutionary new service enables consumers to legally download a complete DVD, play it back on PC and burn one copy of the file to a blank DVD disc. The disc can then be played in virtually any DVD player with full remote control navigation and access to all of the special features. |
