Cablevision announced a new idea that might just work. 'Popcorn DVDs On Demand' would allow Cablevision's digital subscribers to order a DVD via their remote on the day of its DVD release. The subscriber will pay the price for a DVD and has exactly 24-hours to watch the newest release.
Popcorn On Demand is a partnership between Cablevision and Popcorn Home Entertainment. The privately held Home Entertainment company has distribution agreements with Universal and Warner Bros.
'American Gangster' (19th of February) will be one of the first to watch on the Popcorn service.
