A new movie library syncing and playback service expanded out of Disney’s Movies Anywhere. It’s the new Movies Anywhere service that includes Disney along with four other major studios (Sony, WB, 20th Century, Universal).
Movies purchased on Vudu, iTunes, Google Play and Amazon Instant Video, or Digital Copy or Ultraviolet movies redeemed through those services, from those participating studios, are now able to get synced across those services and also into the Movies Anywhere app/service. (which can also play those movies by the way – unlike that darned Ultraviolet mess).
We have for you a step by step guide, with some screenshots too, on how to setup and connect Movies Anywhere. If you have any questions, please feel free to leave a comment here or there.
For a limited time, in an attempt to encourage more people to sign up for the service, Movies Anywhere is offering up to five free movies if you connect one or two services to it.
CONNECTING THE FIRST RETAILER
When you connect your first retailer to Movies Anywhere (anyone from iTunes, Amazon, Google Play or VUDU), you will receive these two movies for FREE in HD in your account: “ICE AGE”, and “Ghostbusters: Answer the Call”. You will get the same two free movies regardless of which service you connect.
CONNECTING THE SECOND RETAILER
The freebies get even better when you connect your second service, you get THREE free movies, “Big Hero 6”, “Jason Bourne”, and “LEGO the Movie”. You get the same three free movies regardless of which service you connect.
When I look at the list of movies in VUDU (after they all sync’ed up together again in the background), LEGO and Bourne show up as UHD even!
You also get confirmation when the connection is made and the free movies are added:
