    I don't understand. Purchases and rentals are two different contractual agreements (one is considered VOD, the other EST (electronic sell thru). AFAIK, Disney is the only studio requiring separate placards, posters and files.

    This is an easy problem to solve. Just make all the VUDU titles rent only!!

    We did learn something else, a new term for this industry - EST content. That stands for Electronic Sell Through, which is distinguished from VOD (Video On Demand) rental content.

    Yeah, this industry has a way of inspiring a very colorful vocabulary. (As in "cover your ears, kids, dad is talking about the MPAA again!" )

    All of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies are now available for purchase as well. The first two are purchase only while the last one is available for purchase or rental (but right now with two different files on Vudu).

    In the interest of transparency and openness I offer the following:

    1.) Dead Man's Chest and At World's End are each available for purchase at iTunes for $14.99 - $5.00 less than Vudu price.
    2.) At World's End is available in HD on iTunes. It is not in HD on Vudu yet.

    But since the largest shareholder of iTunes is also the largest shareholder of Disney, I'm not surprised!

    Outstanding! It will probably be purchase/rental eventually - I would think so. And if it's in DD5.1 - all the better...

    Great movie. That's one I'll watch with her every time my daughter asks for it.

    Cars is the first Disney Title available for purchase

    Looks like Disney/Pixar is finally taking a chance on Vudu purchases. I don't remember the date, but I noticed last night that Cars is coming soon to the Vudu as a purchase only. Now if they'd just really get with the program and make them all Rental/Purchase...

    If there's any movies I'd consider purchasing on the Vudu, it's the ones my kids watch over and over. No DVD cases laying everywhere and grubby fingerprints to clean off the DVDs before they'll play
