Besides, iTunes does offer it's "Plus" files, which actually sound really good and are DRM free. True though, they don't offer a video version yet.]]>Mar 12th 2008 9:10PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/Mar 12th 2008 6:06AMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/Mar 12th 2008 6:21AMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/Mar 12th 2008 6:26AMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/
I own the Family Guy: Blue Harvest DVD and Digital Copy comes with WMP and iTunes capability. In fact, the Mac users can't even use the Digital Copy disc (yes, it is a separate DVD, which means the main release can be on Blu-Ray) and have to just download the entire file from the iTMS.

I suggest, Richard, that you guys send an intern down to Target or Best Buy and pick up one of those releases so you know how the system works.]]>Mar 12th 2008 8:05AMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/Mar 12th 2008 12:10PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/
You put the DC disc in your MacBook and it opened in iTunes and put the episode in there?]]>Mar 12th 2008 1:39PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/Mar 12th 2008 8:59AMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/Mar 13th 2008 12:53PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/Mar 12th 2008 10:55AMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/03/12/lionsgate-adds-itunes-digital-copy-starting-with-rambo/
Blu-Ray sucks because you can't transfer movies to other formats.

Now Blu-Ray allows it with Digital Copy, but that sucks too because it is "tied to iTunes" (untrue) or requires something less than HDTV to play (teeny tiny iPod/iPhone).

There is no satisfying people on the Internet. Sheesh.

on a mac:
you put the disc in and it launches iTunes, you enter the code in the iTunes store, and it copies the movie off the disc into your library. You dont download it from online. You have same usage rights as you do with any other (non-"plus") media downloaded from the iTunes store. For the record Family Guy is 640x480 @ 1.5mbps

in windows:
1. option for the same iTunes experience that the mac has.
2. option to copy a windows media (DRM'd) file for PC playback or transfer to you personal media players that support wmv-drm files.

"Managed Copy" as far as I know is still a long ways away from being a reality, so this does provide a nice interim solution for those with compatible devices. In my opinion it provides a nice slick and easy option for the "majority" of iPod/iPhone/AppleTV users who likely have no clue what Handbrake or similar ripper is.



also to TorontoGuy - check you specs, the latest iPods and iPhones have a higher resolution screen than your PSP. ]]>Mar 13th 2008 2:04AM
