FEB. 12 | Internet movie download site MovieFlix.com added a download-to-own option that offers customers an unlimited number of downloads for a $9.95 a month subscription fee.
Closely held MovieFlix will give subscribers unlimited access to its 4,000 movies, short films and TV shows. The company’s inventory includes about 250 adult titles, 300 indie movies and 100 silent films, according to its Web site.
Founded in 1998, the company said in November that it surpassed 2.5 million subscribers, up from 2 million in mid-2006. MovieFlix had previously offered two subscription models, including a free basic package allowing access to about 1,500 titles available on a Real Player and a $7.95 a month subscription plan allowing users to stream the entire library and watch the titles on a Media Windows Player.
“As Internet technology evolves, MovieFlix.com is committed to staying on the cutting edge of online video service,” CEO Opher Mizrahi said in the statement.
