Vudu- Videos on Demand Box
Vudu is another start up company offering videos on demand via a set top box. The New York Times wrote a glowing review of the company, stating that “Vudu, if all goes as planned, hopes to turn America’s televisions into limitless multiplexes, providing instant gratification for movie buffs. It has built a small Internet-ready movie box that connects to the television and allows couch potatoes to rent or buy any of the 5,000 films now in Vudu’s growing collection. The box’s biggest asset is raw speed: the company says the films will begin playing immediately after a customer makes a selection.” Vudu has already attracted most of the major studios, and has P2P sharing that lowers bandwith. The Vudu Set Top Box will cost $300, but Vudu founder Tony Miranz is confident that people will be won over by Vudu’s ready to buy or rent video collection of over 5,000. I have all the best hope for Vudu, but the video on demand market is already bloated, with Apple’s iTV, TiVo, and Xbox 360 services.
