VUDU TO BE ACQUIRED BY FANDANGO

    Wouldn't Fandango combine libraries with Vudu? Why would they spend all that money to purchase Vudu then trash their library of movies?

    That being said, would anyone here be willing to pay for a monthly or annual subscription, say $5 a month or $60 a year, to access your digital library if that meant keeping Fandango/ Vudu in business? I own about 450 titles on Vudu, not as much as many here, but more than half of those are not on Movies Anywhere.

    Speaking of risks with digital, I play video games, mostly on PC, and pretty much the only option for PC games is digital, mostly through Valve's Steam service. If they went under, I stand to lose almost $10,,000 in game purchases.

    Valve doesn't charge an annual subscription but Microsoft and Sony charge $60 annually for XBOX and Playstation to play online and access their servers, which is needed for most games now. I can see Fandango and possibly other similar streaming services with digital movie purchases going the same route, since they need revenue to maintain and upgrade their servers.

      Would you be willing to pay a store a monthly fee for a dvd/blu-ray you bought from them in order to keep it? My answer would be Hell No!!!

        I essentially do that with games. Pay $60 for a game but have to also pay Microsoft and Sony $60 each to play online with XBOX and Playstation , which is required for pretty much all games now.

              This has always been a risk since the beginning of UV. I remember it being in the terms and conditions of UV - its just that retailers knew that charging a monthly fee would kill it off. I would say this about the risk of a monthly fee - I would dare Vudu/Fandangonow to do it on their own. It would be the death of them.

              Why? Because people would simply stream their MA movies from another provider. The non-MA titles are the issue of course. It would be a massive gamble.

                Just made a complete list on bluray.com of all my MA and non-MA titles, organized on separate lists so I can tell if/when anything is missing. would suggest you all do the same. Also going to keep buying 4K discs of my favorite movies. I am near 400 movies and 20 tv shows on vudu now so storage and quick access is important thats why i use vudu. will probably start using apple tv soon as well

                  FandangoNow bought Vudu to compete to Apple and Disney's MA. FandangoNow website and support system are pure hot garbage and they needed something before they went under. They get the recognition and brand of a well known company. Two schools of thought is they will scrap the vudu name and rebrand it as FandangoNow and keep the Vudu infrastructure or Scrap the FandangoNow name and integrate Vudu into Fandango (which I think will happen). It also give them a launching platform to go after Movies Anywhere down the road which Disney launching Disney+. They probably would be more then willing to sell Movies Anywhere now. Anyways just my thoughts

                    Has there been any talk on if or when Vudu will stop accepting Walmart gift cards as a payment method?

                      Wow great question. I can't even buy a Fandango gift card with a Walmart gift card.

                        I was just thinking about that today. I'm sure they'll stop, hopefully they give us a heads up but the one good thing is Fandango gift cards seem to be almost everywhere compared to Walmart's being only available at Walmart.

                          That's true. It's just I make extra spending money online, and by redeeming points, the only real option to buy digital movies is redeeming for a Walmart gift card.

                            I hear ya. I use Fetch Rewards app to acquire Walmart GC's that I put straight into Vudu. Bad enough WM took away the Savings Catcher, I used to cash in big time with that.
                            If you aren't aware, Google Opinion Rewards gives Google Play cash, I manage to get an MA title @ GPlay about every six weeks or so.

                              Would it be possible to sue if we lost movies we purchased? Or was there a disclaimer somehere saying that we could potentially lose titles? If not, I think a class action lawsuit could be viable

                                No, for multiple reasons. You should probably read the Terms of Service you agreed to.
