    Re: Disney's Frozen - Digital HD - Not Ultraviolet

    I imagine Disney will put the onus on the providers to meet some standards before they allow participation. The current interface is so well-integrated with iTunes it appears seamless after the initial link. In fact, once the account is linked you can watch your content in any supported web browser without even opening or logging in to iTunes. To purchase content you must go to an external page on iTunes, but aside from that it apperas Apple-free. I expect other providers will be required to have equally seamless interfaces. That being said, I think you won't see your Disney movies in your UV account, regardless how much we want it to happen.

    To go UV they more or less would have to abandon iTunes and this is not going to happen.

    They will get Vudu and maybe others to join DMA, come out with an Android app, maybe a smart TV app and they will effectively bypass the need to join UV.

    And don't forget that huge card they have in their back pocket to play when needed - Star Wars.

    It's important to remember, the Xbox One likely only has a blu-ray player for the sake of convenience to developers, as they only need to press one type of disc, as opposed to pressing DVDs for Microsoft and BDs for Sony. Also, the Xbox One is Microsoft's attempt to completely control the living room, and you can't do that these days without a blu-ray player.

    Disney has it's own content, and has a bit more leverage to make it's own rules. As much as I hate to say it, UV needs Disney, but not the other way around. I think the best we can hope for is that they allow Vudu, and all other streaming providers, access to the system to pull licenses. They eventually got around to allowing most providers to redeem DC+, so I don't see a reason they won't do it for DMA.
    +1

    UV vs. DMA is not a format war. Disney will stick with DMA; the other studios will stick with UV. All the retailers, including both Vudu and iTunes, will someday link to both DMA for Disney titles and UV for everyone else. Period. No format war.

    Disney Studios will join DECE. It will just take awhile longer for them to get religion.

    See below. He is not alone. This is why Disney does not need to join UV, but Vudu needs to Disney Movies Anywhere.

    But good news, sort of, if you call up Disney Movies anywhere and ask nicely that they unlock Frozen in your DMA account after providing them the Disney Magic Code from the disc Vudu send you in the mail as part of the pre-order, then "Get A horse" will show up in your DMA locker.

    Also, for what it's worth, I think "Get a horse!" is on the actual Blu-ray, but it's pretty crappy that Vudu doesn't just give it to everyone who owns Digital Copy of Frozen like DMA does. I've been SUPER impressed with DMA so far despite having a UV library of 300+ titles, I'm literally just purchased 30+ Disney movies because the DMA experience is so customer-friendly.

    Wouldn't that be awesome, all your Disney iTunes digital copies being imported into Vudu?

But i'd say around early 2015 they will announce they are joining UV, and will gracefully link the systems so the UV logo appears in your Vudu movies that you also have on DMA. And they will exist side by side for a while.

    Re: Disney's Frozen - Digital HD - Not Ultraviolet

    I have Iron Man 3 preorder from Walmart, but I had another regular Digital Copy code for IM3. I used that DC code on DMR site and got IM3 added to DMA & iTunes. No DMR points were given. My DMR reply:

    Iron Man 3 3D Blu-ray
    You've earned 0 points This code is only valid for digital copy.

    I called DMA twice, and was not able to get Frozen added. They claim the Vudu pre-order is different, and not included in DMA. So I bought I code from someone for $6, and added that.
