Microsoft has entered into three deals designed to bolster its MSN Movies site, adding new features such as movie rentals and downloads. MSN signed agreements with Blockbuster for DVD movie rentals. It also teamed up with CinemaNow for movie and TV show downloads. These new features come at a time when movie watchers have been turning to delivery services, such as Netflix, to dish up movies without leaving home.
