Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment today announced the launch of DIGITAL HD — a new initiative that allows consumers to download or stream their favorite Fox movies on a variety of connected devices. Customized for today’s digital lifestyles, more than 600 Fox films can now be enjoyed anywhere, anytime in amazing high-definition immediately in the U.S. from Amazon, CinemaNow, Google Play, iTunes, PlayStation, VUDU, Xbox Live and YouTube.
The epic sci-fi thriller Prometheus is also available today on DIGITAL HD for less than $15, arriving three weeks before Blu-ray, DVD and video-on-demand (VOD).
Digital HD combines four key benefits into one offering with earlier access to new releases, attractive pricing, cloud storage and availability across multiple devices.
