BitTorrent strikes a deal with Hollywood
Filed under: Home Entertainment
You might consider BitTorrent to be the discerning pirate’s choice when it comes to obtaining everything from movies to software. Well, it’s about to go mainstream, given that BitTorrent, Inc. announced a partnership with pretty much everyone in Hollywood, including 20th Century Fox, G4, Lions Gate, MTV Networks, Nickelodeon, Paramount Pictures and plenty others. This isn’t the first time that the establishment has saddled up with everyone’s favorite file sharing company, although we’re not exactly sure what the effects were on the seedy underground of the internets, nor what new revenue Warner Bros. saw from that deal. Still, this new unnamed service’s offerings and prices will be made available in February 2007, which will be when the BitTorrent’s new online retail marketplace opens for business.
