Re: Who's got the biggest VUDU (D2D, UV) library here?
Nah, 1 mil+ new users per month for the next 5 yrs.
Uv ain't going anywhere.
On the contrary...
I agree remote folk have buffering issues.
That is why there are download options.
Obviously not on a Roku, but game consoles have that built in.
Download & watch fixes the buffering thing.

Who's got the biggest VUDU (D2D, UV) library here?

Re: Who's got the biggest VUDU (D2D, UV) library here?
That's true, you almost have to experience it to understand it. I would say that it's mostly about convenience and mobility, but also about security in that there is no disc to be lost, damaged, or even stolen.
But as with everything, there are disadvantages. Things like internet service being out, buffering issues, UV rights accidently being deleted, incompatibilities across some devices, and all the other technical issues and media management issues we may have to deal with. These issues, as well as other concerns about the stability of companies holding my "investment", are serious enough that I do not plan on buying very many digital copies of movies. I think it's safer to purchase the DVD or Blu-ray and take advantage of either Disc-to-digital or UV redemption. This way I REALLY own the movie to watch whenever I want.
I love having many of our movies in the cloud, but I still think UV is too young to put 100% faith into it offering what they say it offers...access to our movies anytime and FOREVER. When I have gone 5 to 10 years without losing access to any of my movies, then maybe I will change my mind...and when we have a couple more big players in the game like Amazon.com or maybe Netflix.

Originally posted by LuzRinggold View PostWe are trying to get most of our DVD collection in the cloud so we don't ever have to touch the physical disc again and we can take our collection with us wherever we go. Our movies are not there for one person to watch over a two year period, they are there for our entire family to watch forever.
Welcome to the club. There is something about using this technology which is needed for that kind of understanding to really hit home and be appreciated.
With an entertainment collection stored in a cloud service, not only does the family have mobility features which are fully baked, but a child smearing peanut butter onto a disc and then putting it into the x-box/ps3 is a thing of the past.
Also, having remote access while sitting in the barker lounge to the entirety of the collection is a major benefit. I watch/enjoy my family's entertainment collection much more since it is available from a few clicks of a remote.
Add onto this, I can start watching a movie downstairs and when I get sleepy, I can go upstairs and continue to watch from my pause point Al-La whole home DVR'esk and not have to worry about dragging a disc with me to put into a player on my bedroom TV.
With modern lifestyles being what they are, having this watch a little on one device --> pause --> wait some period of time --> pick back up on a different device is a real convenience without having to fish out the disc and mount it to the last saved point.
...but again, this is something that I have found is difficult to communicate the value of. It need be experienced to appreciate.
I am completly locked and loaded with my family's titles in Vudu, absent my D2D stragglers and my Walt Disney Studios titles.

People were curious. Ive got 2588 movies and 27 tv shows right now. I anticipate it going up now with the credit we just received. Probably top 1 % but nowhere near the guy who had 4000.

Re: Who's got the biggest VUDU (D2D, UV) library here?
I am over 1600 just movie titles now. I watch TV shows on my plex server. I don't see getting to much higher until they start releasing some for MGM, Disney and some of the obscure companies.
I would purchase the other titles I would like if they were under $10 for hdx. They did put I think 12 titles up for $9.99 but I have all of themI would like to see titles like Evil Dead 2, Dances with wolves, etc. Even though they are not UV yet I think that day will come.
