Vodafone makes videos available to all / Vodafone Videotheque has a new billing system / Free content can now be easily accessed without advance registration.

Düsseldorf/Berlin (ots) - The Vodafone Videotheque is now open to
all web users. This applies to both mobile video products and
products for the home PC. Purchased or loaned content is either
billed via the ClickandBuy pay list or via the Vodafone customer's
monthly mobile phone bill. What is more, easy access without
registration is now available to the 800 free of charge videos and
series that are currently in the Videotheque. At the IFA, Vodafone
will be giving away vouchers for registered users for the free use of
the cult comic movie "Hellboy" until 17 September 2009.

The Vodafone Videotheque can be found at
http://videothek.vodafone.de/ or accessed via the Vodafone live!
Portal http://m.videothek.vodafone.de. It currently has around 3,000
blockbusters, documentaries and series in various genres. 800 of
these are advertisement financed content which can be used free of
charge without registration. Many of the latest movies are available
at the time of their release on DVD. It's up to the customer whether
he watches the content on his way home from work or at his home PC.
For example, if you start watching a movie on your mobile phone, you
can seamlessly continue watching it at home on the PC. The 24-hour
lending rate is only 99 cents for TV series and EUR 1.99 for movies,
plus connection costs, and there's something for everyone in the
Videotheque. Free content is available to all internet users and you
can watch it any number of times in the 24-hour loan period.

Customers can both loan and purchase videos. If they purchase, the
entire video is downloaded to a PC or laptop and stored there.

Vodafone's video products are based on Microsoft Silverlight
technology which guarantees excellent convenience of use. For
example, users can switch between chapters or languages while the
video is playing.

All that you need to use the Videotheque is internet access (not
included in the offer) with a speed of at least 2 mbit/s and Windows
Media Player in version 10 or higher.
