SightSound Technologies, Microsoft Corp and Panasonic Broadcast & Television Systems Co. today announced that they are working together on a digital cinema trial in Pittsburgh, where audiences can watch a movie commercially delivered over the Internet and projected onto a movie screen using Microsoft® Windows Media(TM) Video. On March 19, ``Quantum Project,'' the Internet feature film produced by Metafilmics and starring Stephen Dorff, Fay Masterson and John Cleese, will have its theatrical premiere at Pittsburgh's Star City Cinemas. ``This is a natural extension for SightSound Technologies, as it has been our goal from the beginning to create digital distribution solutions for the motion picture industry,'' said Scott Sander, president and CEO of SightSound Technologies. ``We see this as an opportunity to implement an economically efficient solution for the content owners as well as the theater owners.''
