Basically Microsoft has decided to
use their ability of streaming music to their own advantage. (click here to read the article)
I’m guessing that
after seeing the success that Netflix and hulu has as film distributors, it
dawned to them that maybe it could work for them. They will be providing a more
direct form of distribution for independent filmmakers. It has been stated that
the prices will range from $14.99 for a regular DVD and $17.99 for a blue ray
DVD.
In
my personal opinion I believe that this is a really good move for the xbox to
do. They have done a really good strategy we help indie filmmakers distribute
there films to all of their users and they can make a juicy profit. But the
also pay attention to the fact they will now be competing with companies like
Apple, with their apple TV. Their prices in comparison with iTunes are very
dramatic and very good for people who really enjoy indie films. I truly enjoy indie
movies and this is something I am really going to be looking forward to. This
also helps filmmakers with not only distribution of their films but also help
them with marketing.
