Default Do You Use The Digital Copy Included With Your Blu-rays?

More & more BD releases seem to have that Digital Copy disc included - and I have yet to ever play one of them. I'd like to get an idea of how many forum members actually use these things, just out of curiosity. If you've played a digital copy once just to see what it looked like, I'd still count that as a "no" since you aren't using digital copies regularly.

The only film I have with a digital copy is Hancock, and I haven't bothered doing anything with it as yet.

Yes, in the advent of the iTOUCH. I now find my DIGITAL COPIES useful but because of space limitations I only have 6 movies:

NIGHTMARE B4 CHRISTMAS
RAMBO IV
THE GOOD THE BAD THE UGLY
HORTON HEARS A WHO
BATMAN
HULK (NEW VERSION)

I would like to load more like MATRIX, ELF, XMEN etc...but 32GB fills up fast.

Nope. I prefer the Blu-ray. However I see the point (Digital Copy competes well with downloads). But I only have so much time for watching movies and so I will go for the Blu-ray every time (it's all about the PQ and the SQ for me).

Never. Just don't see the point of 480p movies on my PC or an iPod.

I didn't at first, but I started to get real serious about ripping my DVD collection to iPod format, so I redeemed my digital copies from my Blu-Ray's that came with it.

Yes. I redeem them through itunes, and load them onto my iphone. Due to space limitations, I cannot sync all digital copies to my phone. But at any given time, I have a few movies I can watch while I am traveling.

They come in real handy to pass the time, especially after a long day at work.

Hell yes. Buy movies I like on blu, then instead of purchasing the the standard dvd for my girlfriend, I can just put the digital copy on her iPod Touch. She loves it...for when she doesn't want to pay attention in class. All she wants is subtitles. ha

I uploaded the one for The Dark Knight, and then went ahead and did the same for the rest of my Blu-rays. I figured I may as well since they'll eventually expire.

It's a waste of time ultimately. It's basically a legalized DVD rip. When you can watch it in HD instead, I don't really see the appeal. And watching it on an iPod seems silly.

I've used a few of my digital copies so far. The only ones I have on my iPhone are Rambo and Street Kings. I might download The Dark Knight and Sex and the City: The Movie pretty soon.
