As a DVD, and now Blu-Ray, collector, I’ve been following the movie studio’s Digital Copy since its introduction as either iTunes or Windows files, via a bonus Digital Disc on retail DVD releases. The Digital Files required the user to unlock the disc and the copy-protected file can only be played with certain video software.
The Digital Disc was eventually replaced with a simple iTunes code, which you can redeem (and if you want, you can download the digital copy on your harddrive or iOS device).
When UltraViolet came out in 2012, I wasn’t quite happy with it, but it was a start. Now most new titles will come with an UV video code, but no Apple iTunes codes.
In 2014, Disney introduced their Disney Anywhere program. With just one code, you can view your movies on anywhere Disney is available: Google Play, Amazon, iTunes, Vudu, etc. This was such a great idea, that on October 12, 2017, they’ve added other studios (Sony Pictures, Twentieth Century Fox, Universal, and Warner Bros.) and changed their name to Movies Anywhere.
Once you connect your iTunes, Disney, Google, and Amazon’s account, you will start seeing the films you own everywhere! Plus, as an incentive, Movie Anywhere will give you five digital film.
My Google’s purchased library have grown exponentially, from 3 films to over 500 titles. If you spend a lot of time using your YouTube app, you’ll appreciate seeing your purchased films in your account. Same if you only have an Apple TV, you’ll see all your UV titles now. The best part is that some iTunes titles have exclusive bonus iTunes Exclusives (special features), that aren’t available on other platforms.
Tip: If you want to grow your iTunes library on the cheap, you can do the Vudu to Go conversation with 10 Blu-Ray Discs for $10 ($1 per film). Once you have the HD Digital Copy in your account, the new 4K Apple TV will upgrade your titles to 4K for free.
