BBC teams up with Azureus for Zudeo distribution
Filed under: Home Entertainment
A fancy new distribution platform is only as good as its content, and while we knew Azureus had the former down pat with Zudeo’s snappy HD distribution techniques, we weren’t quite sure what they had up their sleeve for the latter part of the equation. Well, good news: BBC just signed up for Zudeo, and will be making “hundreds of episodes” available on the fledgling download service. “Programmes” will include Red Dwarf, Doctor Who and The League of Gentleman, with classics such as Fawlty Towers available as well. There will be DRM slapped on top of the shows, which will be distributed in a “high-quality” form, and there’s no word yet exactly how much Zudeo will be charging for these downloads, but if they can break through that $1.99 barrier we’re seeing good things in Zudeo’s future — especially with more content deals on the way, which Azureus is planning to announce in January.
