Disney’s MovieBeam Goes HD
By Dave Zatz
Contributing Writer, RealTechNews
MovieBeam, who just received a large cash infusion from Cisco, is relaunching in 29 markets this year. Basically you buy the $250 Linksys MovieBeam set-top box, every week a few movies are downloaded via a digital over-the-air (OTA) signal, and then you choose which you want to rent from $4 - $6. The movie rental includes a 24 hour viewing period and typical DVR controls. Initially, only Disney and Warner Brothers content will be offered.
We say: If they weren’t upgrading the service to include HD movies, they’re doomed to fail with this pricing model. By offering HD, they may have a chance… though we wouldn’t bet on it. We believe most people will still prefer Netflix’s understandable low-tech methods and reasonable rates. Not to mention, anyone with a cable or satellite box has access to some sort of PPV or VOD without MovieBeam’s upfront hardware fee.
