M-Go customers will also be able to rent and buy Lionsgate movies like the Hunger Games, the Twilight series and the Madea movies. All in all, Lionsgate’s catalog consists of 15,000 movies and TV show episodes, and the deal will eventually bring that entire collection to M-Go.

M-Go’s CEO John Batter told me during a call Wednesday that M-Go currently has 10,000 titles available, and that the company plans to add between 1000 and 2000 additional titles every month.

M-Go launched its public beta at CES in January. Check out my interview with Technicolor CEO Fred Rose about the service below:

Rose wants to change that with M-GO, a new service jointly backed by Technicolor and DreamWorks that launched into public beta at CES. M-Go wants to compete with the likes of iTunes and Amazon, both of which rent and sell Hollywood movies as well. Rose told me that most of these services are meant to promote hardware or some other kind of product. That’s why they haven’t paid enough attention to marketing and packaging, he contended. M-Go, on the other hand, wants to focus only on content.

M-Go started as a joint venture between DreamWorks and Technicolor two years ago, and made its first public debut as a company at CES 2012. The end goal is to launch a service that offers access to all kinds of media in one place, including photos and live television. The service launched into beta with content from all major studios except Disney, and also announced a partnership with pay TV network StarZ at CES.

The service is initially available on the web, on Android and on devices from Vizio and Samsung. M-Go representatives told me that an iPad app is scheduled for February.
