Barnes and Noble unveiled Nook Video when they originally launched their Nook HD and HD+ last year. This service allows for the buying and renting of television shows and movies, but was only reserved for the companies official line of tablets. This has all changed today, with Barnes and Noble announcing it has unleashed Nook Video for iOS, Android and Roku boxes. One of the elements that makes Nook Video stand out from the competition is the integration of Ultra Violet. If you purchase a DVD or Blu-ray movie from select retails, a free digital edition via UV is provided. You can enter the code in the app, and automatically have the content delivered right to your device. Customers who have the previous generation Nook devices, such as the Nook Color and Nook Tablet will now have access to Nook Video. iPad, iPhone, Android and Roku users can download the app right away via Apple and Google Play. This is a USA exclusive though and the app will not show up in unsupported countries. Barnes and Noble has been fairly quiet since the CEO shakeup and the company has been slashing prices on their entire product line. Their entry level Nook HD can be picked up for a paltry $139 and their 9 inch tablet is only $10.00 more. Yesterday, they also dramatically lowered the cost of the Nook Simple Touch with Glowlight and is now available for a paltry $99.99. You can download Nook Video starting today, check it out for Android or iOS. Barnes and Noble Launches Nook Video for Android and iOS is a post from: E-Reader News |
