After an agreement between DIRECTV and Sunbeam ended a couple weeks ago and left Sunbean-owned stations in Boston and Miami blacked out, the two companies have finally reached a deal to get the networks back on the air.
Paramount has launched its online UltraViolet service which lets you purchase or rent films and store a copy in the cloud. The site is the first of its kind, with purchase prices ranging from $12.99 (SD) to $22.99 for HD quality. Rentals will cost you $3.99 (SD) or $4.99 (HD). Right now the site isn't exactly spilling over with titles, but there's no shortage of quality with films like The Godfather trilogy, Mission Impossible 1-3, and new comedies such as No Strings Attached and Rango.
