Vudu Cloud Video Distribution

Vudu is a new service for accessing DVD video content on the web. DVD owners takes their videos to a participating vendor to verify that they own the disc, and then for a five dollar fee obtain access to the online video in HD format over the web. The service is of interest to those who want a web backup for their film library, or who feel the five dollar fee for watching their old DVD in HD format is worthwhile.

According to Lucas Mearian's article, the Vudu service already has a larger share of the online video distribution market than either Sony or Amazon.
