From Frank's post above, it looks like Deluxe just bought CineSend....and they're now going to use that platform and call it "eCinema."
Did Deluxe already indicate what content will be available on their "e-delivery" service? Will all the content they normally distribute in DCP format be available or is it just a select few titles? Because I expect them to require prior authorization from the studios they work for, before the content will appear on their on-line distribution platform. As soon as stuff starts to hit "the Internet", studios are notorious to hit the brake, for whatever, often completely made-up reason.
I picture Deluxe as having this huge farm of servers where all the movies they handle are stored, and they can pull anything needed up and send it out.... sort of like the streamers do with the content they have.
I'm hoping they have a way to filter out some of the trailers....for example, I would like to have the most recent trailers only, in most cases, and there's no need for us to download the arthouse stuff unless it becomes mainstream-successful.
