Blizzard jumps on digital distribution train

Posted on Tuesday, 6 May 2008 by Ryuken, source: Shacknews

Now that practically every publisher offers some form of digital distribution, Blizzard finally joins the fray with their very own online store. Register your older Blizzard games to download them later whenever (and as many times as) you like and/or buy the titles you didn't have yet.

Not all Blizz titles are avaible yet but that will change in the future. Even more important is that people who have registered their Blizzard copies there will automatically be selected for the Blizzard Beta Lottery:

Enter the Blizzard Beta Lottery to put your Blizzard Account in the running to participate in the beta tests for future Blizzard games! By registering, your account will have a chance to be added to the list of invites for each Blizzard public beta test as it begins.

Seems like a nice way to reward loyal fans. Already awaiting those StarCraft II (and Diablo III?) public betas... :)
