Facebook expands movie rentals to five Warner titles
Babysteps launch gathers momentum.
Facebook's rental service has expanded to include five Warner Bros movies, including Inception and the first two Harry Potter movies, pcworld.com reported today.
The rental service involves a streaming application that requires access to a user's basic information. Once the user gives permission for this access and pays about 20 Facebook credits, the user can rent a movie for 48 hours and watch it as many times as they like.
Warner Bros. announced that 'The Dark Knight' would be available a few weeks ago and now five more movies have been added: Inception, the first two Harry Potter movies, Yogi Bear and Life As We Know It.
The movies will be available next Monday and should cost between 30-40 Facebook credits, PC World said, or around $3 - $4.
Unfortunately for Kiwis with a hankering for Facebook viewing, movies are available for streaming in the US only.
