Built by Napster cofounder and former Facebook prez Sean Parker, Screening Room
is reportedly a set top box and service that aims to bring new movies
into your house the same day they hit theaters. The box is rumored to
cost $150, and the movies themselves will be $50, with $20 going to the
theaters, partially to cover the two real-world tickets that come with
each one. It's still in the early stages, but it already has the backing
of guys like Steven Spielberg, J.J. Abrams, Peter Jackson, Martin
Scorsese, and Ron Howard, as well of the interest of studios like
Universal, Fox, and Sony, so it's also likely going to happen — and
soon.
