Much as last week’s Universal deal was lauded as a convenient way for new computer owners to jump-start their digital music collections, Dell and CinemaNow are selling their deal on customers being able to jump-start their digital movie libraries through bundles of movie titles pre-loaded onto select Dell desktop and notebook systems.
According to Texas-based Dell, its new partnership with CinemaNow draws close association from the hardware customisation and personalisation choices that Dell provides for its vast customer base when it comes to the application of colour schemes, fun patterns and exclusive artwork.
Starting at $25 USD, movie lovers looking to take advantage of Dell’s offer can choose from a range of pre-loaded movie titles that have been “hand-selected by major Hollywood studios” to complement Dell’s systems.
Made available in conjunction with leading movie distributors such as Sony Pictures, Warner Bros., Universal Studios, and Paramount, fan and family favourites available through the pre-load offer include, the Spider-Man trilogy, the Matrix trilogy, The Fast and the Furious collection, and also specific bundles tailored towards Children, Romantic Comedy, and Comedy.
Protected from pirating by Windows Media DRM and accessed through the “Movies” icon on the Dell Dock, the pre-load content deal with CinemaNow also enables users to watch their movies through other connected Windows Media-enabled devices found in the home.
Also aping the pre-loaded music deal with Universal, Dell and CinemaNow plan to expand the portfolio of cinematic bundle offers on a regular basis.
