Console tribe news - VUDU: nuovo servizio cinema per Sony
di: Mariano "TylerDurden" AdamoMai come quest’anno Sony ha siglato partnership, soprattutto per il territorio americano, con canali che offrono digital delivery di un gran numero di film. Ai già annunciati MUBI e Hulu Plus si aggiungerà presto VUDU. Il nuovo servizio, disponibile in America dal 23 novembre, offrirà un gran numero di film in HD in streaming. La particolarità del servizio è che, a partire da dicembre, verrà aggiornato e sarà completamente compatibile con Playstation Move.
Sony plans to introduce a user-interface update for the PS3 version of VUDU later in December, which will allow users to control the service using the Move motion-sensing controller.
VUDU was recently acquired by US retail giant Walmart. The service offers PS3 owners high quality HD movie streaming up to up to 1080p with Dolby Digital Plus 5.1 surround sound.
“VUDU delivers a massive library of movies to PS3 in true 1080p HD format, providing another choice for PS3 users to experience cinema-quality entertainment in the comfort of their living rooms,” reads the SCEA press announcement.
“When the VUDU application launches on November 23, PS3 will be the first and only system with dedicated gaming functionality to offer this service. This partnership further establishes PlayStation Network as the complete home entertainment hub, which includes the latest in gaming, movies, television shows, sports, original programming, internet browsing and social networking.
“Using the VUDU streaming movie service, PS3 owners will be able to conveniently and instantly access more than 4,000 HD movies for all major Hollywood studios on-demand, including new releases available the same day they are released to DVD or Blu-ray Disk. The VUDU streaming movie service also offers great value to PS3 households, with an enormous collection of titles available for only $2 for a two night rental.”
