MUMBAI: MGM HD, the high definition movie channel from Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM), has signed an affiliate agreement with cable operator Comcast Corporation. This agreement will provide Comcast the ability to distribute its high-definition (HD) customers with hundreds of HD movies from MGM's library.

 

Comcast's HD customers will be able to get award-winning classic and contemporary films from MGM on both Comcast's linear line-up as well as its signature video-on-demand (VOD) service, which offers more than 10,000 selections each month.

 
"This is another step in growing the incredible opportunities that exist between MGM and Comcast and deepens our strategic relationship," said MGM co-president of worldwide television Jim Packer.

MGM claims of having the world's largest modern film library, consisting of more than 4,100 film titles, which have earned 209 Academy Awards collectively.
