I understand the appeal of having a convenient, portable copy of the film. However, I would never use a "digital copy" of the sort the studios currently offer, out of principle. A DVD or Blu-ray disc already includes a "digital copy" of the film! It should, in principle, be a trivial matter to rip it to any format I like and transfer it to another device. But the studios go out of their way to make this as difficult as possible. It takes nerve to then offer me a crippled, time-limited substitute, and advertise it as a "feature," like they're doing me some big favor by including it.
And that's aside from the fact that most digital copies don't work, anyway, if you don't have a Windows or OS X computer, which I don't.
Everything about digital copies, as they're presently implemented, is total BS.
