Default I got caught up on my digital codes today

I've been neglecting the vast majority of my digital copies. There was over 100 here. Thankfully even the ones that were pre-2010 still worked. I only had a few disc-based ones that showed expired.

It's hard to keep up redeeming these codes. Still have tons I haven't redeemed yet. I do a little by little.

Even the disc-based ones may work if they redeem in iTunes using either the Digital Copy Disc or the XML workaround.

Yeah, I used iTunes for the disc ones. Most worked, some told me expired. Seemed like Universal was the problem child of those.

I used to sell them on eBay. I’m kicking myself now because with the Apple TV it’s so much easier to cue up your digital copy collection. I’m like you, I redeemed around 100 around this time last year that I had sitting around forever.

Yeah, I'm glad I kept them (and they still work). I put in a disc 95% of the time, but its nice to have the digitals if I'm traveling or just putting something on before I fall asleep.

I have probably hundreds of slips from movies I never redeemed.

How do you redeem the ones that were Ultraviolet since UV is no longer a thing anymore? I was referring to like Dark Knight Rises.

I need to go back in all my slips. I never bothered because I assumed they were all expired.

Redeeming them directly on a provider like VUDU or iTunes should work.

All the UVs I had worked fine. I have movies anywhere linked to my Vudu, but I mainly used the movies anywhere to claim everything. There’s some studios that still want you to go to their page first to redeem, then pick vudu or iTunes, etc. just have to play with it.

Never use the studio site to redeem. If the code has a dual redeem, that will kill the dual redeem. As of today this mainly affects Paramount (direct in Vudu or FN and again in directly iTunes) and some older Universal codes (some still work directly in iTunes after redeeming directly in FN or Vudu).

Some of the older Universal UV/iTunes codes were allowed to expire. A few of the very oldest codes expired (usually disc-based codes, though some of those were revived to work directly in retailer sites). Otherwise codes do not expire even several years past the printed expiration date.

UV was a unified system to pass the movies to various retailers, not a style of code. The codes are studio codes that used to pass through the UV system, but now either pass through the MA system (to other retailers, e.g. Warner, Sony, Universal) or are now non-MA and redeem but stay in the retailer you use to redeem them (in Vudu or FN, e.g. Paramount, Lionsgate, MGM).

Kind of regret not just redeeming some of them since a lot of common or otherwise lesser demand blus are barely selling for even a dollar these days and md2d is around $2.20 per movie. Storage space is starting to become a more valued commodity.

Figure I'd post this here since it's related. Has anyones's account ever gotten flagged either by Vudu or Moviesanywhere for redeeming to many films in a row. I was redeeming my black friday haul but halfway through the codes I input are not being recognized by Vudu, Moviesanywhere or even the Studio sites. Has anyone run into this problem before?

I didn't. Like I said, I burned through about 115 in the span of a few hours and didnt have any issue.
