Mitsubishi is teaming up with the manufacturers of the Vudu Box for a month long promotion that gives consumers free movies for buying a new Mitsubishi HDTV.  The promotion includes the $150 valued Vudu Box, a downloadable movie player and $50 of credits to use to download movies from the box.  The offer starts on July 16 and will run through August 10.

Vudu has deals with all major movie studios as well as independent movie distributors.  All of the movies available on the Vudu Box are in high definition and the current catalog contains more than 2,000 titles.  Besides movies, users can access television shows and video games through the download service.  You don’t need to pay a monthly fee to use Vudu and new movies are released on the same day that the DVD version becomes available.  You will need an Ethernet or wireless connection available for the service to operate.

Mitsubishi hopes this offer will make them stand out from other HDTV manufacturers that throw in a Blu-ray player or DVD package.
