Ally Digital Downloads

No snow makes for fiending snowboarders and there is only way to get your fix short of summer snowboard destinations: videos.

The end of the season makes for some killer deals as your local shops start emptying out inventory and slashing prices on those videos you were stoked to see but wanted to spend the money of lift tickets instead. Yet even at a whopping 50% off (unlikely), most shred flicks will run you near $15.00. Presenting the Ally Digital Download widget, your one stop shop for all of the best snowboard movies in high-quality and less than half of the price!

Ally distribution is one of the biggest snowboard/ski video distributors in existence. As a matter of fact, every video I've wanted to see this year I have been (not very) surprised to find at Ally and through this widget; the word "monopoly" ran through my mind.

The Ally Digital Download widget is a simple embeddable store widget that gives you access the the top shred flicks available; videos like Isenseven's Teenage Love Graffiti, Sandbox's All Day Every Day, Think Thank's Stack Footy, Runaway Films' See What I See and more! Since the videos are downloads with no packaging they all cost $9.99-$10.99 but no more, no tax.

So why use Ally's Digital Download widget? iTunes offers up full-length snowboard movies for similar prices, why not use them? An Ally Digital Download is yours! Use it on your ipod, burn a DVD for your HDTV, whatever you want. An iTunes download will only play on your computer and ipod; small screen viewing only = bummer.

I recently caved to temptation and grabbed a copy of Teenage Love Graffiti. Ordering and paying was quick and simple; the whole process took around two seconds. Downloading isn't iTunes lightning fast but I don't really care too much... the quality is superb. Nearly a one-gigabyte file, which for a short snowboard flick is huge, means crystal clear viewing.

I had to burn this video for my 40" HDTV, what other way is there to view a shred movie? The quality was comparable to watching my favorite channels, in other words perfect... not HD, but not a blurry piece of shit either. The soundtrack was flawless, nice and clear with no static. I got my $10 worth that's for sure, and since I didn't steal (illegaly download) this masterpiece I don't feel like a huge asshole either.

The Ally Digital Download widget is easy, quick and most importantly secure. Check out the widget above and grab yourself a video for some evening entertainment.
