Didn't Virgin offer a service recently were you could order the movie on demand for £15.00 before the general DVD release date, and you received a copy of the movie in either DVD or Blu-Ray format through the post shortly after? I'm sure this was done with Clash Of The Titans and Alice In Wonderland.

The future for cinema isn't looking too good. I went to see Hall Pass recently on a Friday afternoon, I was genuinely the only person at the screening! There is a demand to see new movies at home quickly. Essentially I'm paying almost £30.00 per month for SKY Movies in HD. If Virgin offered a Picturebox type service for around the same figure, but showing movies shortly after their cinema release I'd well jump on it. Guess we need Ofcom to give SKY's monopoly on movies a good shake before we see this type of service.

Sorry to go off topic, but it's a service I'd like to see coming soon
