GalleryPlayer, best known for its extensive library of rights-protected high-definition image programming, has signed an exclusive deal with independent home entertainment distributor, Image Entertainment, to release four new titles using Blu-ray.
This marks the debut of high-definition lifestyle imagery on the Blu-ray format in which the world's finest art and photography can be displayed using a stunning, personalised showcase.
The programmes include 1000 Places to See Before You Die, 50 Favourite Destinations, The Amazing World of National Geographic, Art Wolfe: Vanishing Act and 50 Paintings from the Museum of Modern Art.
"GalleryPlayer's move into the Blu-ray disc market underscores the Company's focus on providing consumers with easy access to the world's finest high definition art and photography," said Paul Brownlow, President of GalleryPlayer. "HD Lifestyle Imagery demands the highest quality visual presentation and consumer experience, which Blu-ray discs deliver. Blu-ray discs are clearly the preferred choice, currently outselling HD-DVDs, and we're launching our most popular content on the most popular platform. It's a winning combination for GalleryPlayer, Blu-ray and millions of consumers."
The programmes are expected to be released in the US this autumn.
