MS Wondering if You Want Movies on Zune?

ACE · 02-25-2008, 06:02 PM

Well, there's no such thing as a stupid question, right? But it looks like Microsoft is wondering if y'all would want the big screen to come to...well, your big screen.

In a survey I haven't gotten yet, but Engadget is already reporting on, Microsoft is indeed leading everyone to believe it's testing the waters to get a feel for what people would think about offering movies on Zune. Well, as you may remember, I touched on this very subject a while ago! They may also be wanting to thwart our plans

(no not really). Check out the image. It looks legit and looks like movies are being seriously considered finally!

I will seriously consider this if it doesn't take long to sync them on my zune.
And if they might have A Goofy Movie available.

Oh heck yeah! I'd pay. But the prices need to reflect popularityy, the age of the movie, etc.

I have been waiting to pay for movies!!! and Movie rentals like apple nd netflix wuld be awesome also..maybe make the day a couple of days..like 3.

Movies on Zune Marketplace...sounds cool. Either way I'll still stick to my blockbuster rentals and magicdvdripper.

I have to say, a big part in choosing which MP3 player had to do w/ if I could watch movies on it or not, so heck yeah I want movies.. well I actually all ready do.

It will be interesting to see what happens after all the surveys are in.

This will be great, would Zune Pass work for movies? Perhaps like rentals.

PoN · 02-26-2008, 04:55 AM

It would be like rentals.

Look at xbox live market place you can only have the movie for a short period of time

they should do this but the videos need to be a lot cheaper than the xbl marketplace and they need to let u watch it for like a week
