The video space is hot right now, but it's not just YouTube that's making all the moves. AOL Video just announced that they've struck a deal to sell movies and television shows from Paramount Pictures. Classics including "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and "Chinatown" will be available for a price of $9.99 to $19.99 each. There's newer stuff, too, like "Mission: Impossible III". However, the content is predictably pretty locked-down: once downloaded, it'll only work on up to three other computers or portable devices that support Windows Media Player. Another big drawback: there's no ad-supported content coming out of this deal - you'll have to pay for it all.
