Digital Trends
The battle between competing HD DVD and Blu-ray high-definition disc formats has been quiet for a little while, but the Blu-ray camp has just fired things up again, announcing that as of July 1, consumers who buy a qualifying Blu-ray disc player will be eligible to receive five Blu-ray movies from a list of 20 popular Blu-ray titles—for free.
Nikon today announced five new additions to its Coolpix line of slim consumer-oriented digital cameras, rolling in appealing features like image stabilization, face-finding autofocus, and (in one case) even Wi-Fi-based picture email and sharing.
The video unit for the Warner Bros. film and television studio announced today that it plans to begin selling films and television shows via the file sharing service BitTorrent, once regarded among the most egregious file sharing services in terms of video and software piracy.
According to Warner Bros., it will initially make more than 200 films available via BitTorrent, including major titles like Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Tim Burton’s Corpse Bride, and The Matrix. The company also plans to sell episodes of its television series archive, including The Dukes of Hazzard the influential sci-fi show Babylon 5 via BitTorrent.com. Material will be available via BitTorrent the same day the titles are released to retail channels. WB video selections should become available via BitTorrent by mid-2006.
