Amazon plans to wed downloads, DVD

According to Variety Amazon.com is preparing to enter the digital download space this spring with a service that will likely marry downloads to DVD sales.

In one scenario, Amazon customers could stream a digital copy of a film for a fee and apply that charge as a credit toward the eventual purchase of the DVD.

Another plan is for a customer to buy a DVD; while waiting for it to arrive, he could stream the content over his computer.
