    Vudu users can convert their DVDs and Blu-rays to UltraViolet digital copies

    I tried the free trial thing because it was a free trial (or get five free, or whatever you want to call it). It took me awhile to find five things it would actually recognize. I'm not going to say it was hard to use, but I will say it was... long... to use, I guess.

    Tablets and Smartphones do more video streaming than Smart HDTV's

    Agreed. I've got a Samsung Smart TV and all of those features are essentially worthless. Everything it can do my PS3 can do remarkably better and faster.

    Ultraviolet: What do you like and not like about it?

    For the BEST OF BOTH WORLDS code, I literally had to sign up for a new Paramount UV account and that's the only place you could redeem/view. It wouldn't work anywhere else. I think it's on Vudu now, but you couldn't even do it through Flixter on release day.

    Ultraviolet: What do you like and not like about it?

    LINCOLN just came with an iTunes only code a few months ago. I think that was the last major release that I bought that had that.

    Netflix goes bat@#%@ insane, it's $16 a month now if you want to keep 1 DVD + streaming, $18 for 1 B

    I have FiOS and my YouTube is fine. The caveat, however, is that the PS3 YouTube app is completely worthless and buffers about once every three seconds (literally). On computers it's fine, though. Odd.

    Is the Rumored Apple iTV Already Playing Catch-Up?

    Revolutionizing everything they touched for like a decade isn't enough? They haven't earned a breather?

    Excellent point. I'm off to register the domain "Home Just Like Real Life Forum.com" right now. Back in a bit! ;)

    film grain

    "Real life doesn't have grain" is a peculiar argument, I think. Real life doesn't have a musical score, either. Even though it obviously should.

    Reach of time shift TV grows in the US; live TV viewing still dominates in Q1: Nielsen

    The Digital Bits just linked to an interesting study this morning about how PlayStation 3 owners prefer physical media over streaming services: http://thedigitalbits.com/columns/my-two-cents/061313_0001

    Game of Thrones: The Complete Second Season (2012) Ultraviolet Digital Copy

    It is the HBO Select code, but it is no longer available at iTunes. As I said in the original post, it is for an Ultraviolet digital copy. EDIT: I apologize, the code is now spoken for. Thanks!

    A Few Words About A few words about...™ Vendors, film piracy and national security

    The admin of Demonoid went after them after - surprise surprise - they ran stories about everything that was going on with Demonoid in the last two years and how that dude ran the site into the ground. Twice. So yeah, I'm not sure why you would think he would have anything positive to say about...

    I'm late to this party, but MAN do you not understand what TorrentFreak is. It's a news site that runs Bittorrent-related stories. Nothing more, nothing less. It isn't pushing a "pro-piracy agenda." Unless talking about things that exist is being "pro" something. And "copyright trolls" are...

    Ultraviolet: What do you like and not like about it?

    I keep getting "Unable to Delete..." messages. So close, and yet so far ;) EDIT: It appears that you can only delete freebies that you got through Flixter, which makes sense. But now I have to keep track of what freebies came from where so I know how to delete them, which is mildly irritating...

    What do you think the Home Theater Forum is, exactly? I personally enjoy Sam's contributions to the thread. He has linked to some very interesting pieces that I would not have otherwise found/read. So if anything, your opinion and my opinion cancel each other out.

    Star Trek: The Next Generation Season 4 (Blu-ray) available for preorder

    I've ended up liking the show quite a bit and briefly considered just watching the rest on Netflix in between season releases. You can imagine my shock with the quality on Netflix, which I assume is pretty representative of what the 2002 DVDs looked like. Needless to say, I can wait ;)

    Game Change (HBO; 2012) Ultraviolet Digital Copy for Sale

    Updating to say that the code is gone. Also, I inexplicably called this a documentary in the original post, and it's not, so I feel like an idiot. Thanks, all.

    I love Christopher McQuarrie so this is a blind buy for me. Unfortunately I missed it in the theater, but I'm greatly looking forward to it.

    Star Trek: The Next Generation Season 4 (Blu-ray) available for preorder

    I'm essentially blind buying these as they're released and watching them for the first time on Blu-ray. I had seen the occasional episode here and there, but only when I was much younger when it was originally airing and I don't really remember it. I've gotta tell you - this is a wonderful way...

    Game of Thrones: The Complete First Season (2011) Ultraviolet Digital Copy For Sale

    So I've reduced the price of both the "season one" and "season two" codes to $16.99 a piece, or $30 if you buy them separately. That is significantly cheaper than the $38.99 you'd pay individually on Vudu for literally the exact same thing.

    Superman Returns - Original BD Release

    In ten years, I've only had two discs become affected (that I know of). One was PRINCESS MONONOKE, which looks spotless and just doesn't play at all, and one is a season of THE WEST WING (I believe season two) where one of the discs skips like mad despite a decided lack of any scratches or...
