According to Cnet, Google Play may be adding movie purchases in the near future.
The newly rebranded Android Market currently only offers movie rentals.

Sources within the film industry say Google has shown an interest in giving Android users a way to purchase films rather than just rent although nothing is set in stone.
The same sources say Universal and other major Hollywood studios are making it a requirement that Google also sell titles if they want to keep offering rentals.

If true, the Google Play store may have the first titles available this summer.

Earlier this month, Google rebranded its Music, Books and Android Market services under the Google Play banner, making a more centralized area for all your media needs.
