      <title>Thought You'd Seen the Original Movie About a Daring Archeology Professor Fighting the Nazis?  Think Again!</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">Forty years before Harrison Ford starred in Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark, Leslie Howard played a plain-named archeologist who fought the Nazis in 1941's Pimpernel Smith, now available on DVD.</p><p>Springfield, MO -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 05/22/2008 --   The plot may sound familiar: a resourceful Professor of Archeology goes up against the growing might of pre-war Nazi Germany.  In a thrilling adventure, with the fate of many on the line, our hero has a very common last name and is known for his daring bravado.  But this isn&apos;t a big-budget production from Lucas and Spielberg – in fact, while it might have influenced the 1981 film you&apos;re probably thinking of, this movie came out forty years earlier!<br />
<br />
In 1941, British actor Leslie Howard released a movie he had directed and produced with his own funds, earned from his appearance in the Hollywood blockbuster Gone With The Wind (1939).  Howard had portrayed the honor-bound intellectual Southern gentleman, Ashley Wilkes.  Howard was passionate about the British war effort, and especially wanted to alert a wider audience to the growing threat of Nazi Germany. Howard also wanted to produce a film which updated his famous role as Sir Percy Blakeney in The Scarlet Pimpernel (1934) from Revolutionary France to pre-World War II Europe.   The result was an amazing feature film entitled Pimpernel Smith (1941), known as Mister V in the USA.<br />
<br />
Howard played the title role of Professor Horatio Smith, who uses his cover as an absent-minded archeology professor to smuggle persecuted intellectuals out from under the watchful eyes of the Third Reich.  During one daring rescue, Smith is wounded, which results in revealing his secret identity to his admiring students. They enthusiastically join him in his fight, but things are complicated when one of his students brings a mysterious woman into their inner circle. Smith engages in a game of cat-and-mouse with a ruthless Gestapo adversary who has been assigned to track him down.<br />
<br />
This movie is even credited with inspiring Swedish diplomat Raoul Wallenberg, who attended a private screening with his sister Nina in 1942.  "On the way home," his sister recalled, "he told me this was the kind of thing he would like to do."   Wallenberg went on to mount a rescue operation in Budapest that, conservatively estimated, saved tens of thousands of Hungarian Jews from the Nazi gas chambers. It is doubtful whether any other film has ever inspired an act of heroism on quite this scale.<br />
<br />
Now available for the first time on DVD, Pimpernel Smith serves as a reminder of the power of cinema to change opinion and influence society. A profoundly moving film about the struggle for good in the world, Pimpernel Smith deserves to be seen by today&apos;s audience.  The Pimpernel Smith DVD is available for purchase securely online at <a class="extlink"  rel="nofollow noopener"  target="_blank"  title="http://www.PimpernelSmith.com" href="http://www.PimpernelSmith.com">http://www.PimpernelSmith.com</a>.  No crystal skulls here, but true Indy fans will not be disappointed!<br />

      <title>4Flix.Net's Video Downloads 100% Compatible with Apple's new iPhone and AppleTV</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p>Springfield, MO -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 06/29/2007 --   Online video site 4Flix.Net has announced that all of its DRM-Free content is one hundred per cent compatible with Apple&apos;s new iPhone and AppleTV products.  4Flix.Net provides access to hundreds of high-quality, H.264 encoded feature-length movies, TV shows, cartoons and independent films. Dozens of shorter titles are available at no charge, allowing visitors to sample the content and download speeds.<br />
<br />
"Thanks to avoiding cumbersome Digital Rights Management (DRM), we are able to promise compatibility without compromise," said Dave Holst, founder of 4Flix.Net.  "We are particularly glad that our widescreen titles are 100% compatible, as these look great on Apple&apos;s new hardware."  The new iPhone has a horizontal mode, in effect making it the first of the long-awaited "widescreen iPods", and the living-room based AppleTV has an HDMI port for connecting to high-definition television sets.<br />
<br />
4Flix.Net&apos;s video downloads provide an entirely DRM-free supply of entertainment, enabling cross-platform playback on a wide range of H.264-compatible devices, including Apple&apos;s new iPhone and AppleTV, Microsoft&apos;s Zune, Sony&apos;s PlayStation Portable and even the latest high-definition DVD players.  While both Apple and Amazon recently announced the availability of DRM-free MP3 audio files (at a premium price), they have not expressed any plans to follow suit with DRM-free video files.<br />
<br />
According to Cory Doctorow, former spokesman for the Electronic Frontier Foundation and writer for the influential technology blog BoingBoing, there are several reasons to choose to 4Flix.Net&apos;s DRM-free content over the competition: "If you amass a video collection of DRM video from Microsoft, Apple, Google, Yahoo or other restrictive suppliers, you&apos;re dooming yourself to either throwing out all your movies when you want to change platforms, or keeping multiple players and libraries from these competing companies that are attempting to woo the entertainment companies to licensing content for their locked-down platforms by promising ever-tighter restrictions in their players.  With 4Flix, you get great movies and a great investment -- because the movies arrive without DRM, you can be sure that you&apos;ll be able to play them back on devices and players from lots of companies for the rest of time. You can give them to your kids in your will or donate them to a school library. They&apos;re yours, and you can use them as you see fit."<br />
<br />
Launched in 2005, 4Flix.Net has served up video downloads to over 300,000 visitors from more than one hundred countries worldwide since launch, and currently has thousands of registered users. Along with the catalog of hundreds of downloadable videos, visitors can also subscribe to a complimentary Video Podcast featuring regularly updated short films and cartoons.  4Flix.Net&apos;s vanguard site, <a class="extlink"  rel="nofollow noopener"  target="_blank"  title="http://www.UnabridgedBooks.com" href="http://www.UnabridgedBooks.com">http://www.UnabridgedBooks.com</a> has been serving up DRM-Free audio books and eBooks since 2003.<br />

      <title>4Flix.Net Provides Hundreds of Video iPod-Compatible Downloads Without DRM Under $10 Per Month</title>
      <link>http://www.releasewire.com/press-releases/release-3.htm</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p class="subheadline">4Flix.Net has launched a brand new FREE*PASS monthly subscription plan,  enabling consumers to download hundreds of iPod-compatible feature-length movies, TV shows, cartoons and independent films for one low price, all without cumbersome Digital Rights Management (DRM) restrictions.</p><p>Springfield, MO -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 09/11/2006 --  Online video site 4Flix.Net has introduced a brand new FREE*PASS monthly subscription plan, which allows unrestricted access to hundreds of feature-length movies, TV shows, cartoons and independent films for just $9.99/month. Dozens of shorter titles are available completely free of charge, allowing visitors to sample the content and download speeds before subscribing. <br />
<br />
Compared to the upcoming video download services from Amazon and Apple, which burden the consumer with restrictive Digital Rights Management (DRM) schemes, 4Flix.Net&apos;s FREE*PASS subscription plan provides a completely DRM-free long-term entertainment investment, enabling cross-platform playback on a wide range of H.264-compatible devices, from video iPods to high-definition DVD players.<br />
<br />
Doc Searls, senior editor of Linux Journal and the co-author of the Cluetrain Manifesto, sees DRM restrictions as an opportunity for smaller players to enter the marketplace.<br />
<br />
"The broadcast networks and satellite TV operators see Apple and Google and Yahoo as big partners... and see deals to be made," Searls said. "This stuff is caged, (and) the stuff that is not caged will have an advantage."<br />
<br />
Besides the new monthly subscription plan, single title DRM-free downloads are still available for $1.99 each, a price point just 1/5 the cost of competitive services, as well as a discounted $49 annual FREE*PASS subscription rate.<br />
 <br />
"We are excited to offer a complete monthly subscription plan offering hundreds of titles for the same $9.99 cost as a single DRM-crippled feature-length film downloaded from our competitors" says Dave Holst, founder of 4Flix.Net. "We&apos;ve converted dozens of our shorter titles into free downloads for folks to try out at no charge, and created some great new content categories, including 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die, Cult Classics and the first ever Widescreen category, featuring 16x9 iPod-compatible feature-length films.  We even have direct comparison pricing to the new Amazon Unbox Video Downloads, demonstrating clearly that our prices are 80% less than the competition for the exact same titles!"<br />
<br />
H.264 video is the next generation video entertainment standard and offers much higher efficiencies than the MPEG2 standard currently used in DVD videos.  H.264 content is visually compelling and allows 4Flix.Net content to be played back on a wide variety of platforms, such as:<br />
* Macintosh, including Apple&apos;s brand new "living-room ready" Intel Core Duo Mac Minis and 24" iMacs<br />
* Windows, including Intel&apos;s VIIV digital entertainment platform<br />
* Apple&apos;s 6th Generation 16x9 widescreen Video iPod<br />
* Both Blu-ray and HD-DVD next-generation DVD players<br />
* Apple&apos;s Airport Express Video with HDMI out<br />
* Sony&apos;s Play Station Portable (PSP) <br />

      <description><![CDATA[<div class="newsleft"><div class="newsbody"><p><p><p>Springfield, MO -- (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.releasewire.com/">ReleaseWire</a>) -- 09/11/2006 --  Online video site 4Flix.Net has introduced a brand new FREE*PASS monthly subscription plan, which allows unrestricted access to hundreds of feature-length movies, TV shows, cartoons and independent films for just $9.99/month. Dozens of shorter titles are available completely free of charge, allowing visitors to sample the content and download speeds before subscribing. </p><p><br />
Compared to the upcoming video download services from Amazon and Apple, which burden the consumer with restrictive Digital Rights Management (DRM) schemes, 4Flix.Net&apos;s FREE*PASS subscription plan provides a completely DRM-free long-term entertainment investment, enabling cross-platform playback on a wide range of H.264-compatible devices, from video iPods to high-definition DVD players.</p><p><br />
Doc Searls, senior editor of Linux Journal and the co-author of the Cluetrain Manifesto, sees DRM restrictions as an opportunity for smaller players to enter the marketplace.</p><p><br />
"The broadcast networks and satellite TV operators see Apple and Google and Yahoo as big partners... and see deals to be made," Searls said. "This stuff is caged, (and) the stuff that is not caged will have an advantage."</p><p><br />
Besides the new monthly subscription plan, single title DRM-free downloads are still available for $1.99 each, a price point just 1/5 the cost of competitive services, as well as a discounted $49 annual FREE*PASS subscription rate.</p><p><br />
"We are excited to offer a complete monthly subscription plan offering hundreds of titles for the same $9.99 cost as a single DRM-crippled feature-length film downloaded from our competitors" says Dave Holst, founder of 4Flix.Net. "We&apos;ve converted dozens of our shorter titles into free downloads for folks to try out at no charge, and created some great new content categories, including 1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die, Cult Classics and the first ever Widescreen category, featuring 16x9 iPod-compatible feature-length films.  We even have direct comparison pricing to the new Amazon Unbox Video Downloads, demonstrating clearly that our prices are 80% less than the competition for the exact same titles!"</p><p><br />
H.264 video is the next generation video entertainment standard and offers much higher efficiencies than the MPEG2 standard currently used in DVD videos.  H.264 content is visually compelling and allows 4Flix.Net content to be played back on a wide variety of platforms, such as:</p><p><br />
* Macintosh, including Apple&apos;s brand new "living-room ready" Intel Core Duo Mac Minis and 24" iMacs</p><p><br />
* Windows, including Intel&apos;s VIIV digital entertainment platform</p><p><br />
* Apple&apos;s 6th Generation 16x9 widescreen Video iPod</p><p><br />
* Both Blu-ray and HD-DVD next-generation DVD players</p><p><br />
* Apple&apos;s Airport Express Video with HDMI out</p><p><br />

Launched in 2005, 4Flix.Net has served up video downloads to more than 130,000 visitors from over a hundred countries worldwide since launch, and currently has thousands of registered users.  Dozens of shorter titles are available for download at no cost, and visitors can also subscribe to a free Video Podcast featuring regularly updated short films and animations.  The 4Flix.Net Video Podcast is also accessible directly from Apple&apos;s iTunes Music Store by searching in Podcasts for "4Flix.Net".  4Flix.Net&apos;s vanguard site UnabridgedBooks.com has been serving up DRM-Free audio books and eBooks since 2003.</p>Strafford, MO -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/10/2006 -- Online video site 4Flix.Net has launched its FREE*PASS annual subscription service, which allows unrestricted access to hundreds of feature-length movies, TV shows, cartoons and independent films for a full year.  At a blockbuster introductory price of just $99/year, it provides a wealth of media to the consumer, and features dozens of new titles added each month.  Subscribers also receive access to an exclusive suggestion form, providing them with a voice in selecting the type of content added over the course of the year.</p><p>
By avoiding cumbersome Digital Rights Management (DRM) schemes, 4Flix.Net&apos;s FREE*PASS subscription plan offers a huge advantage over other video subscription sites, which offer only streaming media or restrictive DRM systems, meaning when your account expires, you lose access to those files.  </p><p>
According to Cory Doctorow, former spokesman for the Electronic Frontier Foundation and writer for the influential technology blog BoingBoing, there are several reasons to choose to 4Flix.Net&apos;s DRM-free content over the competition: "If you amass a video collection of DRM video from Microsoft, Apple, Google, Yahoo or other restrictive suppliers, you&apos;re dooming yourself to either throwing out all your movies when you want to change platforms, or keeping multiple players and libraries from these competing companies that are attempting to woo the entertainment companies to licensing content for their locked-down platforms by promising ever-tighter restrictions in their players.  With 4Flix, you get great movies and a great investment — because the movies arrive without DRM, you can be sure that you&apos;ll be able to play them back on devices and players from lots of companies for the rest of time. You can give them to your kids in your will or donate them to a school library. They&apos;re yours, and you can use them as you see fit."</p><p>
With 4Flix.Net&apos;s FREE*PASS, the files are downloaded to your hard drive for viewing at any time on your computer, television or iPod, with no expirations or DRM hassles.  These high-quality H.264 MP4 Files can also be burned to DVD for backup and even viewed on upcoming high-definition DVD players, providing a great investment value for the long-term.</p><p>

<br />
4Flix.Net is not the first online movie download service -- various Hollywood studios-backed sites have been offering films over the Internet for some time now. <br />
<br />
But it is one of the first commercial sites to provide downloadable video files free of Digital Rights Management (DRM) encoding designed to limit consumers&apos; use of the downloaded files. Many DRM schemes are "Windows-only", whereas digital media content from 4Flix.Net is compatible with Macintosh, Windows, Unix, the video iPod and Apple&apos;s upcoming media-savvy Mac Mini. <br />
<br />
"Everyone in this industry is familiar with the phrase &apos;Content is king&apos;, and yet there is a shortage of convenient, portable, DRM-free video" says Dave Holst, founder of 4Flix.Net. "As other cyber-rights advocates have pointed out, there really is no market demand for DRM. Nobody woke up this morning and thought: &apos;I wish there were more restrictions in place so that I could do LESS with the media I buy.&apos; Our service helps to break the &apos;content logjam&apos; by providing consumers with control over their digital media, enabling them to watch whatever, whenever and wherever they want, WITHOUT the inherent hassles of DRM limitations." <br />
<br />
4Flix.Net visitors have instant access to hundreds of movie and TV show selections, all priced at $1.99 or less. Customers may immediately download their purchases to their computers and then move the files freely between viewing devices, including portable media players like the video iPod and living room-based media centers such as the new media-savvy Mac Mini, providing unlimited viewing options for family enjoyment.
