Cinedigm doubles sat theaters

Cinedigm Digital Cinema Corp. plans to more than double its network of satellite-enabled theatre locations across the United States by deploying an additional 300 locations by the end of 2010 resulting in a total of 575 theaters.

Satellite-enabled theaters allow for live 3D sports and event programming like the recent Final Four basketball games and the 2009 BCS college football championship.

In addition to feature movies and alternative content, the Cinedigm satellite network delivers trailers, screen advertising, and encryption keys all via satellite, improving upon the less efficient need to deliver such content to theaters via truck.

“Satellite delivery is the most secure, the most efficient and the most environmentally friendly way to deliver movies and other content to theatres,” said Chuck Goldwater, President of Cinedigm’s Media Services Group.

Cinedigm’s exclusive CineLive product has been developed in conjunction with Sensio Technologies Inc. under an exclusive domestic license agreement with Cinedigm and is designed to work with Cinedigm’s satellite network and digital cinema systems equipped with 3-D technology.
