It's the top one, DRM Media converter. For movies.

Interesting about the 50% off with 10 or more discs on desktop. I can't see why I would use the iOS method over the desktop method in that case. What's the benefit other than being able to scan more quickly?
Also, I had no idea Vudu wasn't available on AppleTV. That's super annoying. I feel like I'm always forced to own more than one streaming device for this very reason. AppleTV doesn't have VUDU or Amazon Prime. Amazon Fire TV doesn't have VUDU or iTunes purchases. Roku has everything but iTunes purchases. You're forced into owning basically at least 2 devices if you own content or want to watch things on either the Apple platform, VUDU, or Amazon Prime... sucks.
While i understand the business model for this, I can't bring myself to pay again for content I already bought. I should be able to spend a flat fee (or perhaps, frankly, NO fee) to have access to content that I already paid a studio to own.
Not likely, did anyone pick up the PlaysForSure server and licenses? Those people all lost their paid-for media.If Vudu were to ever go out of business, I'm sure someone would step in. I would think it's far to valuable to just dump - they'd probably sell to someone.

A benefit would be if you have blurays but not a bluray reader in your computer.
Anyone actually try to use it yet? I tried on both iOS and android but I can't get it to register. It just says it can't register the barcode as a movie. I've tried multiple movies.
I'm talking about Disney and D2D, not Disney providing codes, I realize they do that on all new releases.

My attempt at a free conversion of a DVD failed with a "Location must match billing address". My billing address is correct. Might be an issue with the Postal Database for my location which is incorrect.
Now waiting for Vudu support. I see from a post above that it's not that great. Guess I'll soon see. It's been 24 hours and nada.
Amen to that!
I have previously made this comment, along with the idea that Apple finally join the UltraViolet consortium. That way iTunes would be the primary front-end and we wouldn't need Vudu.![]()
Ultimately, $25 to upgrade 10 DVDs to Hi-Def digital seems like a pretty good deal to me. The only downsides I can see are that you can only watch them via the Vudu app, making it that much harder to maintain an integrated video library, and that there's no app for Apple TV. Considering how crappy some of my older DVDs look on a 4k TV, I can accept the trade-off.
What do I have to do to get the first 10 at half off? I've seen it mentioned but don't know what to do to implement it.
Check my thread out if you'd like something similar for your collection. Might not be quite as cheap but a good way to "digitalize" your collection. https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/itunes-digital-download-codes-check-it-out.2038078/
Tempting, but still a no.
I just can't shake a feeling that one day Walmart may wakeup in the morning and say "Nah--the digital video content business is just not for us" and then close down VUDU.
I just don't have that worry with iTunes.
If Disney were included (With Disney Movies Anywhere) I'd jump all over this.
Curious-- what if you scanned a barcode of a boxset? Like LOTR trilogy-- would that be $2 or $6?
Somewhat related: I just recently learned about sites where you can buy iTunes and other download codes that came with Blu-Rays and have been "donated". The site I used was called "cheapuvcodes.com" It all seemed pretty dodgy to me, but for a few bucks I figured I'd give it a shot -- someone on these forums had pointed out that this kind of business existed, and the prices were great.
Anyway, long story short: I bought a couple iTunes movies and it totally worked. I think I paid $6 for The Revenant with all the iTunes Extras and all that. Not bad!
Very cool. Any particular site(s) you recommend?Yeah there are large communities that sell everything from UV codes to iTunes codes to Vudu credits etc. I have over 1400 Vudu movies and I paid a fraction of the price of buying them full price.

Nuts. It looks like they've discontinued that discount promotion. I presume it was when they launched this new service. It appears I got in just under the wire. That's a shame, as I doubt I'll bother with any further upgrades if they're $5 each.
Every Disney new release comes with a "Disney Movies Anywhere" code in the box. Enter it online, and you now own that movie on iTunes, Amazon, Google, Xbox, and Vudu, in addition to being able to view it within the Disney Movies Anywhere app. I believe the same applies if you purchase digitally. If I buy a Disney movie on iTunes, it is also added to my account on Amazon, Google, etc.
