Gogo Wireless announced its first foray into wireless movie streaming on Wednesday, signing up American Airlines as its first partner. AA said it plans to roll out the technology across its fifteen Boeing 767-200 aircraft, and what AA is calling its "Entertainment on Demand" service is now available on flights between San Francisco and New York/JFK, as well as the Los Angeles-New York/JFK service.
American will charge an "introductory" price of 99 cents per TV show and $3.99 per movie, the company said. Users will need to own a "select personal Wi-Fi-enabled laptop" that is compatible with the service; support for Apple iPhones and iPads is coming soon, according to the American Entertainment on Demand page.
Once streamed, however, the movies will remain on a user's laptop, and available for 24 hours; TV shows will remain viewable for 72 hours. American will stock more than 100 movies and TV shows from major Hollywood studios, with the option to stream a trailer before making a selection.
