It is interesting to note that Walmart’s music efforts go unmentioned in this article. In a year or so, Walmart video service will receive as much attention as their music service.
The retailer that accounts for 40% of all U.S. DVD sales will offer about 3,000 movies and TV shows to buy and download, including such hits as Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest, Paramount’s Mission: Impossible III, Sony’s The Da Vinci Code and Warner Bros.’ Superman Returns.
Walmart is also the #1 seller of music CDs in the US. That didn’t translate to squat in the digital arena.
