Google makes big ‘Play’ for movies

Malaysians can now purchase their favourite movies on Google Play Movies which has finally made its debut here.

LOS ANGELES: Launched less than four years ago, Google Play has already established itself as one of the home entertainment industry's top retailers. 

You read that right: retailers. Aside from serving as the official app store for the Android operating system, Google Play is a digital media store, a place where people who want a break from Netflix can buy movies or TV shows digitally, as soon as, or sooner than, they become available on disc – and long before they show up on Netflix or some other streaming service.
