eHomeUpgrade | CinemaNow Unveils a New Chapter in Television Viewing
I love it. Finally the entertainment industry is catching on. There’s no use trying to stem the tide of technology. Bucking against what the masses really wants is doing nothing but causing them to hemorrhage cash and prompting the resentful overcharged masses to turn to downloading for free rather than paying to watch or listen. Why download a crappy version when I can get a high quality one for 1 – 3 bucks? Nice. Sites like Apple’s iTunes and PureTracks are the music industry’s answer to the problem, and their libraries, although no yet quite complete, are fairly comprehensive.
CinemaNow doesn’t appear to have a ton of blockbusters, especially in my favourite genre of Horror, (in fact none that I can see) but there are a many I haven’t seen. So if you’re into obscure B-Horror like me it makes sense. Perhaps the majors will catch on and see the value of this medium. We can only pray. Right now it’s a great forum for the currently unknown filmmaker suffering from a lack of marketing dollars to get his or her films out to a wide audience.
I love it that we don’t have a need to pay the overhead to keep the doors of those land-based eyesore superstores open anymore. With Amazon and other online retailers we can get what we want without leaving our homes. Nothing like shopping in my drawers. Of course on a dare I might go out that way too. 😉
