Vudu Movie Downloads on Sharp, Samsung, Mitsubishi, and Toshiba
Vudu, the streaming movie download company that debuted their innovative download service a few years ago using proprietary hardware, expanded recently to include a partnership with LG. This allowed owners of certain LG TVs to download VuDu movie or TV episode content straight to their TV. At CES in Las Vegas, VuDu announced they will be expanding this offering to include TVs and Blu Ray disc players from some of the largest consumer electronics manufacturers, including Mitsubishi, Samsung, Toshiba, Sanyo, and Sharp. This will let owners of certain models from those companies take advantage of the 17,000 strong Vudu catalog directly from their TV, with no stand alone Vudu player. Netflix must be thrilled.
