NowChannel.com Expands DVD Search Features at Human-Powered Mashup

CORVALLIS, Oregon (April 21, 2009) - NowChannel.com, an online guide to classic film and TV shows on DVD, has added new features to help users find DVDs quickly and simply. A title search now accepts full, partial, or even misspelled text, to more readily display the desired title matches immediately. And the search results now include TV shows not yet published to DVD, so users may confirm their favorite show is not yet available. NowChannel.com uses human editors to locate, verify, and prioritize over 2,400 classic films available on DVD, and over 1,000 television shows, including a featured section listing classic TV of 1950-1969 fully browsable by year and title.

The new features expand NowChannel’s service providing fast and simple discovery of niche titles on DVD. The site is a mashup run by film-enthusiast editors, who constantly update and filter a database of relevant DVD releases and present them in a clean, concise design. These DVDs are then matched to products available for sale at a trusted third-party website, should a user wish to purchase a DVD or box set. Users may browse by year, title, or awards, and receive the benefit of accurate pre-screened listings, less clutter on the screen, and simple, facilitated user experience.

“People want time spent online to be enjoyable and productive,” said Bob Poulsen, President of NowChannel.com. “We have done the research to allow us to present the most results with the least clutter. Our minimalist, user-friendly, and fast loading layout has won us many fans. Our new search option adds yet another level of convenience. Plus, it’s one more path to discovering forgotten yet related films and shows, which our users appreciate.”
