SANTA MONICA, Calif. -- Movielink (www.Movielink.com), the broadband video-on-demand (VOD) service offering hundreds of hit movies for legal download, announced today that Best Buy will offer Movielink Movie Cards at all 642 store locations nationwide. This promotion with Best Buy marks the first time that Movielink downloads will be offered at retail locations.

There are two ways to get Movielink Movie Cards. Best Buy will offer them as a free "gift with purchase" to customers who buy the Microsoft Media Center PC. In addition, Movielink Movie Cards will be sold separately as a $20 gift card.

"This promotion with Best Buy presents a tremendous opportunity for Movielink to branch out in retail stores," said Jim Ramo, chief executive officer, Movielink. "As the broadband market continues to grow, we're always looking for new ways to expose the Movielink service to more customers and really show the value of broadband video-on-demand."

"Our goal as a retailer is to bring our customers the entertainment they want when, how, and where they want it," said Scott Young, vice president of digital entertainment for Best Buy. "Movielink is an exciting way to help our customers get the most out of their broadband connections and their media center PCs by helping them access movies legally through the Internet."
