and Hollywood Studios




DALLAS, Sept. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- AT&T* today announced the launch of

Hulu), CBS Interactive and dozens more - is available to all consumers at
www.entertainment.att.net. 

By delivering video entertainment to your PC, the new site is part of AT&T's
strategy to make popular content available to consumers across the three

At AT&T Entertainment, fans can view thousands of TV shows after their initial
network airing and movies from a variety of networks and studios, including
ABC, Bravo, CBS Entertainment, CBS News, CNBC,  NBC, Oxygen, Syfy, The CW, USA
Network and more. Consumers can easily find content by browsing TV shows and
movies alphabetically, by genre, or by network or studio. The site is open to
any user; you do not have to be an AT&T customer to enjoy watching shows on
the site. 

AT&T U-verse(SM) TV and Internet customers who visit AT&T Entertainment can
