Android movie rental store goes live in UK

Google has announced that their digital movie rental store for Android devices is now live in the UK.
The store offers 1000 films, and the rentals start at £2.49.

New titles like 'Green Lantern' and 'Fast & Furious Five' are available as well as British classics like 'Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.'

As is standard, the titles must be viewed within 48 hours after you hit play, but you have 30 days to start watching the movie.

The Android Video app is available at market.android.com/movies.
