PRIDE AND PREJUDICE to be available as legal download
The BBC reports that AOL will soon be offering legal downloads of movies, and PRIDE AND PREJUDICE will be among the first offered.
Fans will pay £19.99 for a DVD of their chosen film plus two digital copies to keep indefinitely - one for their home computer and one for a portable device.
Universal said it could “completely revolutionise” how people watch movies.
There is a catch, of course.
However users will not be able to burn copies of the films to DVD themselves and the files will be compatible only with PCs and Windows software.
So how long do you suppose it will take for some enterprising young spirit to figure out how to work around that “can’t burn a DVD” feature?
