Guba: Auto Conversion of Your Video Content and Now Movies from Warner Brothers

Guba is a service that's been around for years. In recent months they began offering a video upload service that will automatically and for free make your footage available in Flash, iPod, and PSP formats for viewing. Now, Guba has signed a distribution deal with Warner Brothers (more from TechCrunch) allowing you to rent (Video on Demand) or purchase (Download-To-Own), depending on the title a number of movies. From Syriana to Good Night and Good Luck to the Best in Show and the 1st Season of the Flinstones. Rentals (VOD) offers 24 hrs. of viewing time at $1.79 to $2.99. Here's the full press release. Other players in this space include CinemaNow and MovieLink. We're also big fans and users of Vongo which offers a large number of movies as well as a 24hr feed from Encore. It's a flat rate service and depending on the film you can watch it as many times as you like until the license expires, often many months. You can also choose to have videos download when your computer is not busy. Vongo also offers a number of video-on-demand/24hr titles.
