LAS VEGAS, April 24 (UPI) -- CustomFlix Labs said it has reached agreements with a number of networks to distribute select program content via DVD on Demand on Amazon.com's Web site.
"The CustomFlix DVD on Demand service works perfectly for the massive amount of content that network and cable channels have yet to make available on DVD and other digital formats," said Dana LoPiccolo-Giles, co-founder and managing director of CustomFlix. "Our service enables content providers to quickly and economically distribute previously unavailable programming to millions of Amazon.com customers. Because we produce discs only when customers order, our providers are not subject to the expense or risk associated with traditional distribution methods."
The company has reached agreements with NBC Universal, A&E Home Video and the Public Broadcasting Service.
"Working with CustomFlix enables us to identify key programs, advertise the availability of these programs on DVD, and make them available for purchase while the shows are airing," said Kim Niemi, senior vice president of NBC Universal Television distribution, video, music and product development. "The ability to offer our viewers a quick and easy method to purchase NBC Universal programming that wouldn't ordinarily be available through traditional DVD distribution is very exciting."
