From what I've heard you can go here:

http://www.wbdigitalcopy.com/support/#landing-content

and they will exchange your expired code for a working one. Hope it works out for you.

I got an expired code for the I am legend I ordered from best buy special price. I just tried it and it still works. give it a shot. Same company (Warner Bros.)

I just gave WB a piece of my mind....they better get back at me. I wish the WB Rep I knew was not away!(Holiday Vacation)

Don't waste your time. They don't care if your digital copy works. Tried support 3 different times. Never got a response ever. That support request goes to a junk email box.

GOAT · 12-21-2009, 12:56 AM

I just used my Constantine one (from WB expired in October)

I've had to contact them a couple of times and always get responses.

So I guess someone was checking the Junk Folder on those days.

Yea there a pain in the butt. I just went through all my BD I had about 50 DC about 10-15 where expired by a few weeks they all still worked and 5 where a few months which worked except Nightmare Before Christmas.

I'm not too happy about having 50 gigs of data of DC's on my HDD. Next I need to burn them onto some DVD.

Freekman · 12-21-2009, 02:02 AM

I used the one from Hellboy II a couple days after expiration and it still worked fine.

DNinja · 12-21-2009, 12:39 PM

I have probably 20 or 30 expired digital copies right now. I'm at the point where I would rather NOT get a digital copy included with the movie. I had 5 or 6 digital copies on my laptop and never watched them. If I had an iPod or Zune maybe I would care more. I like the idea of digital copies, but not the expiration dates and DRM.

Whoever thought of expiration dates needs to have their nuts placed in a vice by Joe Pesci's Casino character and slowly squeezed...

Must be. I've never gotten anything back with my requests.

I have a large number of digital copies, in my Blu-ray disc collection, which have expired. Some even were expired when I purchased the disc! What do I do with these copies? Garbage, I guess.
What I would like to know is why waste the material to produce a useless disc, which will end up in a land fill garbage site, in that these can't even be recycled.
