I’m sure by now everyone has seen or heard about the Oscar winners. There were lots of predictable winners and surprising upsets. One thing is for certain though, Cinemira makes the perfect tool to keep track, rent, or purchase of all the latest Oscar winners and nominees in iTunes.
Add all available winners, such as The Hurt Locker, Inglourious Basterds, and Precious to your Favorites Stack to view now or later. For Oscar titles only available for pre-order like The Blind Side, add them to your Will Call stack to be notified the minute they become available to purchase or rent. For Apple TV users Cinemira is the perfect tool to find that Oscar winner in beautiful HD!
First off let me thank all of the beta testers who have been putting Cinemira through its paces and have been giving us great feedback. Quite honestly we thought we would be seeing many more bugs, but since we haven’t we thought we would move Cinemira to its next logical step, an open beta site.
Basically the open beta is just that, no more requesting access or secret passwords, the beta will be open to all. But before we do this we will be focusing our efforts on two areas. One is to clearly identifying the purchase only and HD purchase titles with purchase links, and the other is working on a more flexible UI to accommodate screen resolutions down to 1024×768. Once we have the purchase labels working we’ll move to the open beta with tackling the screen resolution right after.
We are planning on the open beta coming around the first week of April. If all goes well, we are looking forward to getting the Cinemira beta in everyones hands, and continuing to improve on what we think of as a pretty cool tool.
Apple Movie Junkie, formerly Apple TV Junkie, is the official blog of Cinemira. We provide a helpful service for users of the iTunes Movie Store and the Apple TV. AMJ was born out of a surprising shortcoming on the Apple TV after noticing that there was no easy way to find a list of all new HD & SD rental titles released on a daily basis. AMJ fills that niche with a daily list of new movies.
