Movies on cable before DVD?
By Behind The Scenes TV on Jun 11, 2008 in Uncategorized
The MPAA has offered a deal to the Federal Communications Commission that could bring movies to cable and satellite viewers more quickly after their original release. The trade-off, though, is that the movies couldn’t be viewed by some high-definition TVs, nor could they be recorded by stand-alone TiVos. The FCC moved quickly to invite public comments on the MPAA’s petition, meaning that it could decide the issue later this summer.
