Vudu Runs Into Trouble

It’s not closing its doors or anything yet, but online movie rental service Vudu has laid off some of its staff, including some of the higher-ups responsible for marketing, according to Engadget HD. Not only that, but “rumors are swirling regarding just about every aspect of the company’s future.”
