Sears introduces movie download service as Netflix rival
Sears said today it has launched a video download web site called Alphaline Entertainment that will let users download movies the day they are released on DVD or Blu-ray.
The site, alphaline.roxionow.com, runs on a platform run by licensee partner Sonic Solutions and its RoxioNow service. Sonic Solutions, based in Novato, Calif., concentrates on selling movies through retailers.
Separately, Sears said it will honor an unspecified number of gift cards that online shoppers obtained for 50 percent off because of a computer glitch Sunday night, the retailer said Tuesday. Sears canceled the erroneously discounted gift cards that had not yet been activated.
