MOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., Feb. 24 (UPI) -- California's Google Inc. and Amazon.com Inc.'s Internet Movie Database both launched Internet bids this week to sell movie tickets.
Amazon's Internet Movie Database partnered with Fandango Inc. and Google teamed with MovieTickets.com Inc. in their ventures.
Google's new service not only lets users buy tickets but also lets them search for actors, movie titles or such general keywords as 'great action sequence,' the Los Angeles Times said Thursday.
Online tracking firm Exhibitor Relations Co. says online sales are a small portion of overall box-office receipts, which it said hit a record $9.4 billion last year."
