Movies on demand
Wednesday, June 21, 2006
If you haven't heard of Vongo, it's a pretty novel concept. Vongo is a video on demand service that allows the user to download and view movies for a fixed price per month. The service claims to offer high quality video playback of over 1000 titles. Members pay a flat fee of $9.99 per month, and have access to unlimited downloads during the 30 day period.
The catch is that the movies are only viewable within the confines of a certain time period; some movies are available for weeks, some for months. Once a movie expires, it is automatically deleted from the user's hard drive. The service claims an average download time of 30-40 minutes on a 90 minute movie for cable and DSL users.
