right Movieshack was an online DVD rental company in New Zealand. Based in Auckland, it was launched on 28 June 2004 and introduced commercial online DVD rentals to New Zealand. The company was founded (anecdotally, from a bedroom) by brothers James and Nick MacAvoy, who created the customised software systems and website.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.nzherald.co.nz/search/story.cfm?storyid=4085D026-39E2-11DA-8E1B-A5B353C55561 )〕 A January 2007 story in The Herald on Sunday estimated the New Zealand online DVD rental market at 15000 subscribers, with the implication that Movieshack was the smallest of the three major online DVD rental companies (the others being Fatso and DVD Unlimited).〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.nzherald.co.nz/topic/story.cfm?c_id=183&objectid=10420148 )〕 In June 2008, the company announced a merger with former competitors Fatso and DVD Unlimited.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.nzherald.co.nz/technology/news/article.cfm?c_id=5&objectid=10517301 )〕 Screen Enterprises Limited was formed by merging the businesses of DVD Unlimited, Fatso and Movie Shack. According to the 2008 SKY Network Television annual report, the three firms were all struggling with the business model that has "yet to be accepted in New Zealand". SKY Network Television owns 51% of Screen Enterprises Limited and as such all subscribers are consolidated into SKY’s results. Movieshack completed the switch-over of its services in November 2008, when it switched it members to the new service which now operates under the Fatso name. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Movieshack」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
