Transfer ultraviolet digital copy dvd to iTunes, not Flixster?

Got Horrible Bosses on Blu-Ray and instead of a digital copy that downloads automatically to iTunes, they have this new "ultraviolet" digital copy that only downloads to some stupid thing called Flixster Collections, which basically tries to be like iTunes for movies, but is way ******** and less convenient.

ANYWAY, the point is, I want to watch it on iTunes. Is there a way to do it? --- I'm pretty worried the answer is no, since I googled it and came back with nothing, but I thought I'd ask ----

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.2)

No, I don't work with flixster or anyone else related to these movies or apps. Yes that was my first post because I'd never had any problems that needed any answers back on a forum. I'm just another customer that wanted to buy a movie (Dolphin Tale) and be able to watch it on my iPhone. I was looking for a way to do that, though I really wanted it on iTunes like everyone else.


Flixster wasn't the solution that I wanted either, but it did allow me to be able to take the movie with me, and that was better than nothing at all, so I posted the solution that I found. I only looked for a little bit when I came to the forum, but didn't see any posts that I read that said that you could get them to cough up a way to put it on iTunes. I did see someone mention something that led me to the solution that I found and that's what I posted.


I agree with everyone else that we ought to be able to manage our media any way that we want and I too have now submitted a ticket to see if I can get DT moved over to iTunes.

don't settle with wb until they finally agree to mail you a digital copy disc which is what seems to be their strategy for all titles except hp7v2 where they will give you an itunes download code you have to keep bothering them we pay for movies and they want to only give you half of what you payed for that's not acceptable thankfully universal's strategy so far allows you to redeem your code in itunes maybe warner can learn something from them doubtful but maybe

so i have received replys with all my uv/wb titles and am waiting on digital copy discs with the files for itunes that said the only movie where they haven't sent a disc is for harry potter and the deathly hallows part 2 they gave me an itunes download code for it but problem being is that after i download the movie the itunes extras don't play and i have tried explaining to apple the files they themselves or wb is distributing are corrupt is there anyone else that is having this problem??

My experience was similar - using the support link thats already been mentioned here, I had a reply from Flixster/UV within about 5 minutes with a redemption code for HP7 Part 2 on iTunes. I think they're getting the message that people don't care for Flixster/UV.


Don't worry folks, you can get a code or a digital copy disc for iTunes sent to you with very little trouble. They seem to get it....

Well, it's been 2 weeks now, and still waiting for my copy through the mail.


For all my other DVD's.. All I get from Sony, is the middle finger.. so if you get something from Sony, then forget about an Itunes movie.. you will not get it..

WB at the other hand is willing to help you. but.. waiting for my copy in the mail as of yet..

I had to submit 6 tickets (out of those 6 only got 2 messages back acknowledging my ticket had been recieved) and 1 email before I finally got an actual response back. They gave me a code for 1 and are mailing me discs for the others. My best advice at this point is to just keep sending the tickets if you really want the codes/discs and to send them a message that their serive is terrible

Apple should just send a message to UV, and just pull every app that runs UV from Itunes, and we will see how long UV sticks around, without being able to run on ipads, iphones, touch ipods...there goes 90% of the market they are shooting for, to be honest with you i dont have an issue with WB UV cause they have given me codes for every movie I have bought, it Sony who has dug their heels in are idiots in general, and they wonder why anonymous hates them...when the ps3 network crash in early 2011, i was upset but you know what i went out and bought a 360 kinect, and what sony offered to bring customers back was absoulute crap, now they have back a system the WB has basically said stinks by their actions, and Sony sits their dictating to the consumer this is how its gonna be. Keep your crappy UV. Give us options of UV of ITunes.
