Sony customers in the UK and Europe are getting Sony video on demand service from today. It’s available on a compatible Sony Bravia TV, Blu-ray player and home theatre system. Want to know if your Sony Bravia TV or Sony Blu-ray is compatible? Click through for more details.
Unfortunately, compatibility is restricted to newer Sony models, and applies only to the 2010 line-up of Sony Bravia TVs, Blu-ray players and home theatre whatnots.
Its full title is Video on Demand powered by Qriocity, and it allows you to browse, search, preview and select movies via your Sony Bravia TV remote control. You’ll find it under the cross media bar on the main menu.
When you rent a film you get 14 days to start watching the movie, and 48 hours to watch the film as many times as you can cram once you’ve hit play. Already in on Qriocity are a whole raft of the big studios, including Lionsgate, MGM, Paramount, Sony, and Disney to name a few, and there’s new releases, classics and local language films too.
You can rent films in SD or HD, with SD rental prices at less than HD rental prices. Rental prices for SD content start at £2.49 for older content and £3.49 for new releases, while HD content starts at £4.49 for new releases and £3.49 for everything else.
