Online movies take step forward.(Knight Ridder Newspapers)
Byline: Mike Langberg
Here's something my 3-year-old daughter Sara will have a hard time remembering when she's in high school:
Movies recorded on tape and disc for home viewing, bought or rented from stores or delivered by mail.
Sara will give me one of those adolescent "Oh, Dad, you dinosaur" looks when I try to tell her that high-definition movies weren't always available on demand through an ultrahigh-speed Internet connection for download in three minutes.
Then she'll pop her 1-ounce cell phone into her ear and demand the keys to the family hover-car.
Meanwhile, back in the year 2004, we're just getting started with movies online. The process is slow and somewhat convoluted, but the new and awkwardly named Starz Ticket on Real Movies service does a good job of showing where we're headed.
