Slated for debut on April 16th, the internet video service provider Akimbo's latest offering targets those of you running Windows XP- or Vista-based platforms.

Part of a joint venture with Sonic Solutions, Akimbo's user interface will be integrated into Sonic's upcoming release of Roxio Venue. Plans are already in the works to allow video burns of downloaded content to CSS-encrypted DVDs this summer.

Although MovieLink won't be available on PC versions of the software, the variety of downloadable content is still impressive. Along with a host of other features, Akimbo offers: cable television shows, music and concert videos, special interest, games, ethnic content, and even some HD programs.

Best of all? The new PC service won't require a monthly subscription, installation fees, or set-up charges.
