Sears Launches Movie-Download Service With Sonic Solutions
Sears Holdings Corp. has launched its online movie download service, Alphaline Entertainment, allowing Sears and K-Mart customers to download movies the same day they are released on DVD.
The service runs on Sonic Solutions’ RoxioNow platform, and the companies are working on a rollout to make the services available on portable media players, mobile phones and high-definition televisions under a multiyear agreement. Plans for the service were first announced in June.
