the HD stuff is real good
yeah i have done.. i want to get some disney movies but looks like i got to mess about signing up for DMAjust make sure you get HD versions on iTunes. For some reason i have one or two SD's and well....not that impressive
I'm curious about it myself. I bought a couple earlier. Seems possibly wrong, but doesn't seem much different than buying a slew of dvds at a yard sale for a dollar a piece.
If the code requires the XML workaround for iTunes, it's SD. Except for Disney movies. Also most Fox movies not have a iTunes code.
Oooky. Thanks for the heads up. I will keep that in mind about the XML code, as I'm trying to avoid claiming any codes that I wouldn't actually genuinely appreciate.
If I had to guess, the codes are most likely acquired from the digital copy inserts that come with Blurays. I'm not sure how the sellers acquire them, whether they are trading with other sellers or work for a company like Netflix that would have hundreds of unused codes lying around or if they just open some copies at the store and pull them out but when you redeem one it gives you a copy of the movie just as if you had redeemed a digital copy code, complete with iTunes Extras. The sellers will typically include instructions with them as to whether you just redeem them in iTunes or go to a company's website. Like I said, I've probably purchased 80-90 codes in the past year and have never had an issue redeeming them.
I also wanted to add, I have bought from a few sellers that post in various Google+ communities and while I personally think it is too much work trying to connect with someone on there, you can normally get better prices and a better selection than the online stores.
If you go looking into some of the VUDU and Ultraviolet communities on Google+ you can probably find a thread on D2D sellers. I tried it and as long as you trust people, it's a FANTASTIC way to add some titles to your VUDU library. The basic idea is that the sellers have spreadsheets where they list the titles they offer for Disc to Digital. Some of them have over 1000 titles. You send them a list of the titles you want and they send you back an invoice for you to pay them and their instructions. This is the part where you have to trust them: you send them your VUDU account email and password (a good tip to is change the password to something you don't normally use before you do this). The seller then loads the Disc to Digital app on their computer, loads each of the discs for conversion, and then emails you back. You load the Disc to Digital app on your computer and the titles show up in your cart and you finish the checkout procedure. Most sellers charge around 50 cents a title to load them, so if you want to add 20 titles it winds up costing you $30 (20 X $1 for the checkout, and 20 X .50 for the seller fees).
