Previously viewed downloads?
June 17, 2008
Nordic electronic sell-through and video-on-demand service Film2Home.com has launched a new peer-to-peer service based on Bittorrent technology in which users will be able to download movies legally and then offer them up for P2P sharing, and they'll even get money for it.
That money, according to Film2Home, will be awarded depending on the size of the movie file that's shared and how many others are distributing the same file. Proceeds can be used to purchase and download more movies or changed into cash.
The service, which partnered with Ameibo to offer the legal downloads, launched with 1,000 movies, but founder Cecilia Versteegh said the company hopes to increase that with "more movies from major studios as soon as possible."
Seems difficult to believe the majors would be happy with this arrangement, unless they're getting a portion of those re-sales.
