RoxioNow is coming to mobile devices this holiday season.

Sonic Solutions is absolutely dominant in the online video rental field. They're the guys that host VOD services for Best Buy, Sears, Walmart, Blockbuster, Lionsgate and others. They're also the guys bringing the VOD experience to mobile phones this holiday season.

Order 'Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows'

Coming to Blu-ray June 12th

"By teaming with Widevine," says VP Mark Ely, "we are able to seamlessly overcome the technical hurdles of digital rights management and platform optimization behind the scenes, enabling our partners to deliver a compelling, hassle-free movie experience to their customers."

Thanks to the new arrangement, Sonic's video services will be hitting Blackberries, Androids and iPhones this holiday season. The rollout is all up to Sonic's partners though, so you may not see them all at once.
