Vongo, the Internet-based video service launched by Starz Entertainment Group, unveiled a “gold” version of the service with over 1,600 movie and video selections. Based on consumer feedback, the encode rate was raised to 1.3Mbps for most selections. Improvements to the user interface include more descriptive listings of series and episodic content and better performance and search capabilities when managing and exploring content in “My Library” and “search.” Vongo’s price remains unchanged — $9.99 per month for unlimited subscription downloads.
