    Yeah, it's disappointing. Even Warner Bros who was one of the main UV cheerleaders early on hasn't added anything in months.


    Maybe they no longer see the value in offering a 'discount' to add Digital copies when they can just make you pay full price for it, like Disney with their $100.00 Star Wars package.

      Re: Disc to Digital Title List

      my impression is the title list has been exhusted.

      If they are not adding new titles though, it may be indication that the D2D program which was billed as an incentive program is in the process of winding down.

      I was luckly to have added about 500 titles from D2D.

        I don't think Warner, Sony, or Universal have many titles left in their catalog that aren't UV. The bulk of catalog titles that aren't UV are from Lionsgate. Fox has a few, but not many.

        In the list of 250 catalog titles that aren't D2D, 150 are from MGM and Lionsgate. The studios other than FOX have about 10 titles or less on the list.

          Recent WB movies are D2D. None of the DC Animated movies post-Justice League War. Gravity isn't D2D.

            That's my assumption, as well. They're basically out of titles to release that don't require massive legal wrangling or have a new release pending.

              I don't really understand why new releases are D2D anyway, I mean, that is what the UV code is for. D2D was just supposed to cover older titles that never came with codes. I expect D2D to wind down anyway assuming UV gains widespread adoption.

                Right now, there are plenty of people who don't do digital anything to grab and make UV adopters. Down the road, though, the game will be winning eyeballs from iTunes, Netflix and other services. The ability to get your existing collection is a major advantage over those systems, so they'd be pretty foolish to drop it.

                  I don't see Netflix as a competitor to UV. Netflix is not something you own. You are at the whim of their contracts. Movies come and go from Netflix. I think Itunes is a competitor because both services offer movies you can digitally buy and OWN and know that it won't go away next month.

                  But I can't wrap my head around why anyone would want Itunes. If you have Apple TV, Itunes is fine. But how many people do you know that have Apple TV? I know maybe 3. Everyone has a PS3, or a blu-ray, or a Roku, etc. UV is available everywhere. Why would you choose a limiting format?? I just don't get it.

                    I've got 2 Apple TVs. I had the first before Vudu and Ultraviolet came into being. The second I picked up because it was on sale and offered 1080p instead of just 720p. They have come in handy for streaming some things that I can't using other means. That was when they were the only game in town except for the Windows digital copies that were locked to a single computer. I also have redeemed about 300 movies in iTunes. Most of those I also got on Vudu because both versions were available at time of redemption. I've got 1200+ movies in the Vudu universe and it is, by far, the best solution because I can share them with my kids. Everything I have in iTunes I have in Vudu. Now, with talk of 3 party apps being made for a new version of the Apple TV. With that, hopefully, Vudu will make an app for that and then I can use 1 device to stream all of my content. Then it won't matter what I use (but I'll redeem to Vudu first) to watch what I want, when I want, where I want. I don't ever see an App that will allow connection to iTunes from anything other than a computer or an "i" device from Apple.

                    And, just so you know, I am not an Apple fan boy. I was given the first ATV and didn't really use it that much. That was until my wife found that she could stream her hockey games to the big tv instead of watching them on her iPad.

                      Itunes is a direct competitor, sure, but Netflix is definitely competing with Vudu for eyeballs. The disadvantages to Netflix you mention are real enough, but it's just part of the pros and cons of the services. I know at least a couple of people who aren't interested in buying digital movies because they figure it will show up on Netflix at some point, so there is a bit of competition there. Many of the sales you see on Vudu are because those movies are available on Netflix.

                      That said, Vudu probably wouldn't have nearly as many customers if Netflix hadn't helped so many people acclimate to streaming videos.

                            Recent releases will not convert with VUDU To Go software. You will need to take the discs into Walmart to get converted.
