Dude I dont even use the digital disk. However I would still like a spot for any disk I recieve just as it is when u buy the eco cases. How hard is that to understand? Got Em!!

If you don't use it, why keep it? I'm sorry, but you're not making any sense. It's a fugly disc anyways, imo. If it rattles you that much, then keep your ironpack as a collectible and store your discs in the regular case.

U just said it "collectible. How doesnt it make sense? If I have 4 disk then I want 4 spots for sumthin I paid for? Wether I use it or not u never know what someone may do or use down the road. I dont see why they couldnt put one more slot for all 4 disk? It isnt nuthin major but I still find it odd. Thats all I am saying. Got Em!!

Indeed, it is really nothing major.

I just can't believe the DVD is selling better than the BD at Amazon. Come on!! Who can watch a Disney Pixar movie on DVD? That should be illegal!

I think it's because of the $8 off coupon you can get that Amazon does not take. I am a prime member and I never recieved amazon's own $8 off code, and I buy primarily thru them...except on disney new releases that have coupons.

I can't find a 'Special Features' menu on my Disc 1.

I just have:

PLAY

SCENE SELECTION

SETTINGS

ENHANCED MENU (which doesnt seem to work with my player)

This is driving me crazy. If anyone can help me find DAY & NIGHT, I'd appreciate it.
(I can't imagine that the Enhanced Menu is the only way to access it.)

the Pixar short "Night and Day" is on disc 1. all special features (including commentaries which is odd) are on disc 2.

Well, assuming you pre-ordered Toy Story 3, you got the ironpack for free. So, you didn't pay for it and you should be grateful you got it at all.

But like you said, it isn't a big deal and it definitely isn't something that merits pages of whining about it on a thread. You still have an eco case, use it.

Dont let me get started on eco cases haha. Got Em!!

Well, I guess its a player issue.

I just tried my disc in a newer player, and it automatically uses the 'Enchanced Menu', and my DAY & NIGHT is there.

But on my ancient Samsung player, which only uses a basic menu, I cannot access it.

I'll see if there's a Firmware update, but i dont think that's gonna do it.

This was my very first Digital Copy experience and the process was easy as cake . i put the Digital Copy disc in my desktop, it loaded up immediatly, asked for the activation code, entered it, logged into my DMR account from the Digital Copy interface, and it gave me my choice of either iTunes or Windows Media Player format. of course i chose the iTunes version, lol. i've heard stories about problems with the Windows Media format so it was a no-brainer. took me directly to the iTunes store, entered the code once more, logged into my iTunes account, and it began to download immediatly... and quick too!. the whole thing download in under 4 minutes for such a huge file . while it was downloading the disc was spinning and the disc drive sounded as if i was burning a cd. so it copies directly from the disc?. i thought the disc was just there to activate the code lol. checked my iTunes account and it showed up as a normal purchase from the iTunes Store :P. $0.00 sub total, $0.00 tax, $0.00 total lol. awsome . also during Digital Copy activation the code also automatically added 125 DMR points into my account . i'm at 375 so i wonder if i can redeem them for anything at this point . also for some reason DMR gave me access to watch the full TS3 movie online for free when i log into my account with the "Watch instantly/Play movie" feature, which is very cool . is anybody else able to watch the movie online for free after logging into their DMR accounts besides me?. TS3 Digital Copy has been loaded on the iPod classic and iPod Touch and ready for viewing later on tonight with the family on the go . will be watching the Blu-Ray and DVD versions in the pack later this week . BTW the iTunes Digital Copy version's size is 1.45 GB for those wondering.

Yes. Everybody is, actually. It's a common Disney feature on Pixar films.

Good for you, man. By the way, I heard the digital copies for most Disney movies, don't really expire.

Actually the only digital copy I ever had that expired was The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Ok cool. i was'nt sure because when i redeemed Snow White on DMR last year it gave me the option to "Add an online copy" for $5.99 which i declined, so i wondered if this was a mistake or not. very cool of them to do this on Pixar films . yet another way to watch this great film .

EDIT: is the "watch online" version permanent in your DMR account for purchasing the combo pack or is it removed after a certain amount of time?. also is there a view limit on it?. thanks .

Haha thanks. i know i'm a little over excited about this digital copy and all, but i just had to share my experience since it was my first time redeeming one . i hear one year from release date for expiration but i feel they should never expire. yes one year is a good amount of time to claim it, but what about those that never got around to buying until a year after release?. as long as you paid for it (the combo pack) you should be able to redeem it whenever you want in the future. i missed out on "Up" and "The Princess and the Frog" combo packs and am still waiting on deals for these two (which will probrably never happen). if a deal does come up soon and the "Up" combo pack is included in the deal the Digital Copy won't work when i recieve it since it was released on 11/9/09. kinda sucks.

[rlj1010]

Well, I just updated my Samsung BP-1400 to the most recent firmware....

And still can't get DAY & NIGHT.

That sucks.

Coupon was a bit of a hassle but it went through. Got home, tore off the wrapping, flipped the digital copy disc into a waste basket and put the discs I'll actually use into the IronPack. I'll watch it tomorrow.
