Wal-Mart's online video downloading service which began in February has been quietly canceled, less than a year after the site went live. Wal-Mart was the first major retailer to partner with all of the major Hollywood movie studios and TV networks to offer downloads the same day titles were released on DVD.
Hewlett Packard which provided the technology that powered this service decided to discontinue its services because the market for paid video downloads did not perform that well.
