Warner Bros. offers video on demand through Guba...

wtf....

I guess money talks and bullshit not only walks but flies...

Quote:

Guba, a pioneer in the user-generated video content space, became a pioneer of another sort today, when Warner Brothers? film and television content went on sale on Guba.com at 2 PM PST. Through its deal with Warner, Guba will initially sell almost 200 movie and television titles (quickly expanding shortly thereafter), ranging from new releases like ?Good Night and Good Luck? to ?classic? television content like ?The Jetsons?.

Guba will offer two services to users. View-On-Demand (VOD) is priced from $1.79 to $2.99 and affords the user a 24 hour rental. Download-To-Own (DTO) will range from $9.99 to $19.99 for newer titles and allows unlimited viewing on 2 computers and 1 portable device, while allowing a single DVD burn for backup. The service will play content through Windows Media Player on a 640X480 screen. Downloads are progressive and will run up to 1.3MB/second.

Wow so you mean while Adult was busy whining and crying about Guba, mainstream found a way to monetize their huge user base? I for one am shocked!

I dont see this lasting that long. As they are hit with more and more copyright infringments, Warner will pull out.

Guba said they were going mainstream, guess they did.

google video already has this covered , i dont think guba will be able to compete with google video for vod, especially since they are already hooked up with the major tv/movie production companies..

This idea has been way way way too long in coming. When mp3's hit the computer scene , there was no way to legally buy them , just to steal or copy them , they didnt even have standalone mp3 players. It took a few years for companies to catch up.. Movies and t.v. on the internet seems to be following the same trend ( the product is out before the ability to sell the product..)
