Bell Canada Kills Video Store…. Shock…. Not!
You might remember that Bell had opened an online video store last May. At the time I said that this service wouldn’t last long, and it didn’t. Just 13 months after it opened, Bell has announced via e-mail to their subscribers that they’re closing down the video store as of June 15th. I guess it couldn’t compete against iTunes. Or perhaps nobody likes Bell because they ticked so many people off in the last year with their throttling activities. Either way, I for one will not be sad to see this video store go.

The video store is going away, sure, but only because Bell is going to be releasing Video on Demand. Saw a demo of it at the Telecom Summit – the aim is to get it to mobile devices as well as TVs of subscribers.
