The future of iTunes and Digital Copies

Nope. It's a piece of cake. The software is still in beta, so it doesn't always recognize everything correctly. You just need to have a Blu-ray drive for your computer to convert Blu-rays.

Most of the time, I use Vudu for pretty much everything. It's become my default UV service, and it's where I focus most of my attention. A big reason for this is, not only is Vudu the most consistently stable, but it also offers the best quality. Additionally, there are sometimes Vudu-only digital copies that are not UV. If they're not UV, Flixster and CinemaNow won't have access to them. Some Wal-Mart exclusives are Vudu only, and Disney's recently releases have had Vudu options that aren't UV. Very rarely, there are rights issues with some services not having access to all UV movies. This happens the most with Flixster in my experience (although it accounts for like 4 movies out of 200 in my collection), and the least with Vudu.

Flixster's mobile app isn't bad, and CinemaNow's is pretty good too. At this point, all three have about the same functionality on mobile devices. Flixster has a little more to it since it's linked with Rotten Tomatoes and allows you to search for theaters and movie times as well. I still use Vudu almost exclusively though.

As for at home use, Vudu is the only way I roll.
