Ready to rent movies online from YouTube? The video sharing website now has five films from the Sundance Film Festival available from the video sharing site as they begin their venture into the movie rental business, according to CNN.

"For a lot of the films that go through the festival, the most attention they receive is those 10 days for the festival," said the festival's programming director, Trevor Groth. "Now that the technology [like video on demand] is available for these films --- why not make them accessible?"


The Sundance movies are just a prologue for a much more ambitious pay-per-view venture, a report from the LA Times adds. The paper cites insiders for the information, but none would go on record just yet with the full details.

The movies will be available for a limited time and only to rent until the end of this month. The five films are are "Bass Ackwards," "The Cove," "One Too Many Mornings," "Homewrecker" and "Children of Invention."
