    Roxio Venue Qflix Review

    Posted on Friday, November 07 2008 @ 14:03:09 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck


    Today I've got sort of a combo review for you, it's of the new Roxio Venue service and the specialized DVD burner that accompanies it. Roxio Venue is an online store where you can purchase movies, but what makes Venue different is that you not only have the digital version of the movie to watch but you can burn it to DVD to watch in a standard DVD player. In other words your digital media purchase is now a tangible thing that you can feel, touch and even take with you to share with friends or family. These are what is normally called Burn-to-DVD-Downloads. In order to do this though you've got to have a special Qflix enabled DVD burner and special Qflix blank DVDs as well as they're essentially a form of DRM. Normally I'm against DRM, but this type works for me as it offers me something tangible that I can touch and actually see a physical manifestation of my purchase, unlike something that remains on my computer in digital form.

    This is a new development that I'm just beginning to see around the net. It has been almost hush hush for a product that could have wide implications. Maybe the parites involved didn't want a big splash and be disappointed. The good news is that it seems to work and the price points and minor details will keep adjusting if they want to keep it around.
