Disney studios have made transactional video-on-demand deals with online video services YouTube and Google Play in the UK.

These first deals in Europe mean that users can buy or rent movies. “This launch will offer UK viewers further choice and flexibility in how they enjoy our must-see films at home or on the move – all in a hassle-free cloud system,” said Catherine Powell, senior vice president and general manager, media distribution, The Walt Disney Company, EMEA.
