SunshineDVD.com Nabs <i>Shane and Friends</i> VOD Rights

VAN NUYS, Calif. - Odyssey Group Video's first new release in four years, Shane and Friends, is now available on VOD and PPV exclusively through sunshinedvd.com.

“We have been asked by consumers when this title would be made available for download and decided to use Sunshinedvd.com as its sole provider for now," said a spokesman for OGV. "There are sites out there that are better known, but with Sunshine we have the advantage of being the only big release for them to spotlight. Other sites are great, but because of their affiliations we might be highlighted for a day or two and then replaced by someone else they need to move to the forefront.”

Launched six months ago, Sunshinedvd.com currently offers approximately 3,000 adult movies, including the original Seymore Butts movies produced by Sunshine. The site continues to expand its VOD catalog  with additional titles added every day.

“The other reason we decided to go with Sunshine is theirdelivery system is state of the art, giving the consumer broadcast-quality delivery," the spokesman continued. "And of course, Sunshine is where Shane started several years ago with Seymore Butts, so they have all of those early titles for her fans to choose from as well.”

Shane and Friends can be viewed directly from SunshineDVD.com or through ogvondemand.com as listed on the DVD. The movie arrived in stores Sept. 20.

A second volume of Shane and Friends is on the way from OGV.
