Dish Network Might Offer "Early Release" VOD

Dish Network is considering offering an "early release" video-on-demand for films that are about eight weeks out of theaters, similar to what DirecTV already offers. The DirecTV offer shows new-release movies about eight weeks after they have ended theater exhibition, for a $30 price.

Dish is in negotiations with Hollywood studios and no final decision has been made on whether to introduce the service.
