StumbleVideo chain delivering films over phone lines
Monday, July 24, 2000 | 11:25 a.m.
DALLAS -- The world's leading video rental chain has taken a big step toward making a trip to the corner video store unnecessary.
Blockbuster Inc. and Enron Broadband Services have struck a 20-year agreement to deliver movies on demand to consumers' computers or televisions over high-speed telephone lines.
The two Texas companies were expected to offer the movies in selected cities by year's end. Those cities have not been determined.
