FYI on the Vudu lists - 200 title limit per list.

I'm hoping my non-iTunes titles will only need one list ;)

I just did mine, and if I caught everything I have 36 movie titles which are exclusive to Vudu. That is more than I would have expected, so this was a worthwhile endeavor. Thanks for the idea!

Well this is going well - I've only done A and B and I'm at 38 :(

Most of this is going to be Paramount, MGM, and Lionsgate titles but I already know of a few that are MA studio movies that are not MA enabled.

My final tally of Vudu stuck movies - 317

Most are non-MA studios. As long as I have access to them on Vudu, I'll not buy those again on iTunes and hope for the best. If I lose access to them, then I won't have a choice and at least now I'll have a list.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre is listed as MPI Media, which I'm assuming won't join MA, so that I will just repurchase.

These titles are from MA studios but are not MA enabled or are different cuts:

Background to Danger
Donnie Darko
Kid Galahad
The Letter
Little Caesar
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Only Angels Have Wings
Platinum Blonde
Stand by Me
Stripes
There's Something About Mary
Twentieth Century
White Heat
Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf

These I have but are no longer available for purchase anywhere else:

The Abyss
True Lies

Monty Python's Meaning of Life shows up in both my iTunes and Vudu libraries. It's also in my Movies Anywhere library.

I think the issue with Stripes is only the extended version is available on iTunes.

That was there by mistake and I removed it - got my Python's mixed up

Correct. The reason I listed it is since it's an MA studio, if Apple added the correct cut I would get it. Same situation with There's Something About Mary.

Great idea for a feature. If I’m able to sign up in the future it would be a wonderful thing to be able to share with family members in this time of limited mobility.
