MOD Systems has announced it will launch an improved playback solution for movie and television downloaded from kiosks to Secure Digital (SD) cards, allowing for playback on PCs, notebooks, netbooks, televisions, portable media players and mobile phones.
According to a news release from MOD, its playback solution is the first to enable secure playback of digital content downloaded to SD cards, and the company also has codeveloped a PC Player, a secure SD card to USB converter for PCs lacking an SD card slot and a second-generation SD card television playback system. The company says it will announce GreenPlay-compatible device support from a variety of consumer electronics companies in 2010, including Blu-Ray players, televisions and digital set-top boxes.
"The SD memory card offers a tremendous opportunity for the entertainment industry and retailers to distribute media securely, conveniently and easily on a widely used format that consumers can take anywhere," said Anthony Bay, chairman and CEO of MOD Systems. "Our new playback solution completes the digital entertainment ecosystem for secure content delivery specified by the SD Association, making it easy for retailers and entertainment companies to sell digital content, and consumers to acquire and playback movies, TV shows and music on any device."
