Vudu Adds Free Streaming Content like YouTube and Flikr
If you don't have a VUDU player yet, there's a great new reason to get one. According to CNET.com:
Vudu is adding some free video content to its set-top box. Streaming video from providers such as YouTube, MSNBC, CNN, MTV, PBS, and National Geographic will be available, as will access to Flickr and Picasa photos and a handful of casual video games. The new content will be available via a free firmware update that's scheduled to hit all Vudu boxes over the next 24 hours.
Another tidbit in the article:
If the new Vudu features sound compelling--or potentially compelling, at least--remember that Best Buy's $200 movie credit--bringing the price of the $300 Vudu BX100 to an effective price of just $100--expires on December 31.
You might want to jump on the Best Buy deal if you're leaning towards the VUDU.
