Zediva fought the law and the law shut it down . The original DVD rental service, sued by the MPAA and Hollywood studios for running afoul of licensing and distribution agreements, has temporarily closed shop. an announcement at the outfit’s website optimistically refers back to the court-ordered injunction as an “intermission,” pointing to a hopeful future resumption of operations, and guaranteeing customers an answer for unused credits. The company’s promised to fight back against Judge Walter’s decision, and is within the means of appealing the ruling which can see it facing an enduring service blackout. We are hoping for the sake of its “DVD-changing monkeys” that every one parties involved can work this out. Make sure you head past the break for Zediva’s full explanation.
You might have heard by now that we’re having to put off our DVD-changing monkeys…
a number of years ago we came up with an concept for a better generation of DVD rentals. It gave the impression to us logical and evolutionary that if a customer was ready to rent and play a DVD in his home, there must be no the reason is, she or he couldn’t do this from the web cloud. Of course, you are able to do that with a DVR, so why not with a DVD player?
Well, it seems to has been a little bit more complicated than that …
We’re suspending Zediva’s operations to conform with an order by the us District Court for the Central District of California.
While we are hoping to be back online soon, we do not know when (or whether) so that you can happen. We’re disappointed by this turn of events, and that we aren’t permitted to serve you.
We’re quite aware that a number of you’ve unused credits with us and appreciate your patience as we determine our next steps. Stay tuned for additional info via email.
