Sony planning to start movie download service
The Associated Press reports that Sony is possible headed to a head-on collision with Apple as it plans to create its own movie download service.
“Music and video downloading has been available through networks, and we are looking into the area as a possible business,” said Sony spokesman Shigenori Yoshida.
The Japanese company recently launched a new Walkman video player that comes with Microsoft Corp.’s Windows Media Player 11. It is capable of managing digital libraries in the U.S. and Europe. The LCD-mounted players, which will also be compatible with MPEG-4 encoded video and AVC, are already available in Japan.
