Opening an early VOD window
June 27, 2008
Bravia HDTV owners will be able to see Will Smith-starring Hancock on TVs before anyone else.
Sony plans to stream the movie through the Bravia Internet Link (requires an extra box priced at $299) prior to the movie's release on DVD and Blu-ray.
Studio's have been working on ways to offer video-on-demand in high-def prior to the DVD window, but they've been worried about copy protection issues -- they show it, people record it, why by the DVD?
Hancock looks like a glimpse into the future.
