Buy the Ticket. Take the Ride.

Today, I made an interesting observation about the programming on Starz. I was looking for the schedule for the Hunter S. Thompson documentary "Buy the Ticket. Take the Ride". It wasn't available in the schedule listing on my Tivo box. I then went to the Starz website. Again, the information wasn't available. However.... Starz did redirect me to Vongo for the opportunity to download the movie direct to my laptop for a nominal fee.

While I wasn't suprised that Starz would take the opportunity to provide me with a revenue generating opportunity, but I was suprised that this opportunity took place outside of my existing Starz/DirecTv relationship.
