Movielink is a joint venture of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, Paramount Pictures, Sony Pictures Entertainment, Universal Studios and Warner Bros. Studios.[/quote]
I got 3 free rentals with Movielink several years ago with my DSL subscription. IIRC, they were 320x240 DRM-encrusted WMV files that expired after a few days. Hopefully they've gotten better.
