@David_B_K Thanks for this! As someone who's never before treaded in this water, it feels a bit unnerving.
I've already created a Movies Anywhere account and linked it to You Tube. Now I'm trying to figure out which of the others [Apple TV, Fandago At Home, etc.] I need accounts with...
Great point and great information. Do these digital copy codes expire or can I redeem them years later as long as I still have the physical disc?
"Whew!" As I grow older I always wonder if it's just me when certain things don't make sense. Good to hear you guys also agree this landscape is...
Thanks for your patience, guys. Yes, I was assuming Movies Anywhere, Fandago at Home, Google Play, and Amazon Prime all required monthly fees. I'm constantly being bombarded with offers from the latter, so I'm still a bit confused there. I understood basic Apple TV didn't but did not know...
As usual, you make excellent points. If a title ever appears that's persuasive enough and only available through Movies Anywhere, etc., I might jump onboard, but likely not.

Thanks, Josh! Your insight in this area [and others] is always appreciated. The highlighted portion of the above quote didn't quite translate for me. Are you basically saying "buy the HD version available on iTunes?" I've never purchased video content from iTunes. Do I have to use iTunes in...
There are several noteworthy College Football films but, in my opinion, none captures the "good, bad and ugly" of the institution quite like 1993's The Program. Genre mates like We Are Marshall, The Express, Necessary Roughness and even Adam Sandler's The Waterboy have all seen Blu but, for some...
