Mumbai-based hyper-local content distribution venture Fropcorn announced the launch of its entertainment-on-demand services at the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (RGIA) in Hyderabad on Thursday.
Fropcorn's media server which serves entertainment on demand through a Wi-Fi hotspot is currently available at the security hold area of the domestic terminal, and shall soon be extended to other parts of the airport, Kartik Poddar, co-founder Fropcorn, told Gadgets 360. The company says via its app, users can download a movie onto their phone in 3 minutes without needing an Internet connection. They can then enjoy this movie on a flight, which will especially be a boon to customers who fly on low cost carriers without any in-flight entertainment.
As a promotional drive, Fropcorn's catalog of over a hundred movies will be available to download for free for the first two weeks, he added. After that, the charge for downloading a movie will range from Rs. 50 to Rs. 100.
