Since this time last year, we’ve more than doubled the number of day-and-date releases on demand, and the plan is to grow that even more. Today, for example, lovers of romance films and fans of author Nicholas Sparks can check out his latest book-to-film with “Dear John.” Within the next month, there are about a dozen more day-and-date releases coming to FiOS TV VOD, including “Shutter Island” on June 8, “The Book of Eli” on June 15 and “Remember Me” on June 22.
FiOS customers may have noticed another VOD enhancement: more on-demand movies are available as two-day rentals, rather than the traditional 24-hour availability. In fact, we’ve tripled the number of two-day rentals in the past year, and customers can now choose from hundreds of current films to watch over two days including “The Blind Side,” “Edge of Darkness” and “The Princess and the Frog.”
And that’s not all. Films from many of the major studios are now available on FiOS TV on demand up to 28 days before they become available from online and kiosk rental outfits like Netflix and Redbox. That means as a FiOS subscriber, you get to check out movies like “Valentine’s Day,” “Invictus” and “The Tooth Fairy” first.
There’s something for every member of the family among our 1,000 monthly movie choices, not to mention our overall collection of more than 18,000 VOD titles, including 3,300 in HD. Remember too that 70 percent of our on-demand titles are free. And with FiOS TV’s growing number of two-day rentals and day-and-date releases, going to the movies – at home – has never been better.
