• From Yahoo! News: Disney Inks Deal on Downloading Movies - strictly speaking, movie scores - oops, a misread (thanks, Matt)

  The deal gives Movielink access to film titles from all the major studios except one - Twentieth Century Fox Studios - and boosts its library of digitized films to around 400 from the 175 the company had when it launched eight months ago.

  Movies from Walt Disney Pictures, Touchstone, Miramax and Dimension New Releases will be available through the service. Among the first releases will be “Gangs of New York,” “The Recruit” and “The Jungle Book 2.”
