Sonic Solutions has just
announced that it will begin offering movies from its catalog to Fujisoft's streaming Wii video service,
Minna no Theater Wii. The Roxio
CinemaNow service, as offered through
Minna no Theater, will offer both new releases and older titles from the Paramount archives, to users of the downloadable WiiWare video streaming application, which is currently available only in Japan. Though Lionsgate content isn't specified in this agreement, it's worth noting that Cinemanow also distributes movies from that company, an executive of which
predicted an agreement much like this.
Minna no Theatre is one of two WiiWare-based streaming video offerings, the other being Nintendo's
Wii no Ma Channel, which is currently focused on original programming. Fujisoft has indicated
plans to release
Minna no Theater in North America.
