    Why don't movies share anymore with members

    Ive used vudu and ultraviolet since the beginning and rarely had a problem, ever since linking with movies anywhere nobody's movies that are in my shared group never show up in each other's movie library anymore. Why?? I've tried every member to re-link there accounts and movies still are not being shared. Does movies anywhere suck? Please help with any answers to help solve this madness, thanks to anyone who can help

    Blockers, Fallen Kingdom, and Skyscraper are MA only.

    Meg and RPO are MA and UV, only if you redeem at Vudu. If you redeem at MA (or another MA retailer) they are MA only.

    Vudu only supports sharing via UV if you have a grandfathered account (no new sharing). Otherwise, Vudu doesn't support sharing at all.

    Other MA retailers do support sharing. You also have the option of activating multiple Roku players on one MA account, using the standard MA app.

      Oh wow. Thank you for this update. I actually have been redeeming at movies anywhere just cause it's easier. I like vudu much better though, hopefully they'll share again in the future.

          Disney was never on UV, so UV sharing wouldn't impact Disney.

          Amazon, Apple, and Google all support MA, and all support account sharing (including of Disney titles).

          Vudu has obviously chosen not to support account sharing, but this is a Vudu decision and not a Disney decision.

            I purchased a UV movie from a shared account and it didn't port to my UV locker. It used to work before but doesn't anymore. UV didn't respond to my help request. I tried to delete my secondary Vudu account and merge it with my primary since I've read about others on this forum who were able to get Vudu to do this over the phone. However, Vudu said they couldn't do it because I was sharing a UV account? Meanwhile, UV hasn't responded to my help request and they don't have a phone number. Even if I go to the UV site, only a quarter of my titles will load, and the search functionality is broken so I can't even confirm if I have the title or not. I also bought a few $5 UV titles from Fandangonow within the last few months that haven't ported to Vudu and which may or may not be in my UV locker. I think UV is all but dead.

              That is my point. They COULD HAVE joined UV. But they didn't like the sharing. So they came up with their own scheme, with no library sharing. Don't give me that "amazon, apple, google support sharing" stuff. Its not the same. It just isn't. Period. It's a family sharing type thing that ties your account ( AND CREDIT CARD ) to the other users. Different and worse than how Vudu libraries worked.

              Vudu had library sharing ( if you didn't know ) and only stopped that after Movies Anywhere ( Disney ) plopped their big ole butt into the pool disturbing everything that was going on with UV and Vudu. All Disney had to do was joing UV like everybody else and everything would have been fanfrickentastic.

              So yes, I will still blame all this on Disney.
