    is there a limit to ultraviolet downloads?

    I have a few BlueRay discs with the Ultraviolet code. I found info about a limit of 3 streams at one time. What I have not been able to find is info about a limit on downloads.

    Can I download the movies more than once? I'm asking because I don't want to make my one download of a movie to a temporary place....like a tablet. If there is a limit, I'd rather download them to a portable drive and have them all together. If there is no limit, then I can download again at at later date to consolidate things.

    This isn't about downloading to share. From what I've read, the download is limited to devices listed on the account so that makes it almost impossible anyway.

    The download limit depends on the service provider, but I don't think it is being enforced.
    I don't think current downloads are transferable among devices, i.e. I don't think you can download on one tablet and transfer to another or download on your computer and transfer to your tablet.

    When the CFF format is finalized you will be able to download and store and transfer but UV is not at this stage quite yet.

      The great thing about the CFF is that it is perfectly legal to trade the CFF file on p2p networks like BitTorrent because you can only actually play the downloaded file if you have the movie in your UV locker. This means it should be pretty easy to re-download a CFF file if you ever lose it, because it will likely be widely shared. At least this is how I understand it.

        This is definitely what I hope, but I'm taking a "wait and see" before I get too excited about the prospect. Don't want to sound negative, but pirates are good at messing things up for legitimate consumers.

        I wouldn't be surprised if they stood up their own P2P platform for this purpose, and limited sharing to only files known to be authentic UV copies. I think having that walled garden would go a long way in keeping a legit user from unknowingly downloading an illegal copy.

        But I speculate. And honestly, I'm tired of speculating about it. The CFF has been promised since the end of 2012, and here we are Q1 2014 and there is absolutely nothing being said about it. Just little random tidbits of info here and there. I need a release date; and I want a firm date, something we can hold their feet to the fire for missing. No more of these vague "release windows". Let's get on with it already!

          Why would you want to download a CFF file from BitTorrent when you can download it from a provider?

              There has been no announced CFF download limits as far as I know.

                Re: is there a limit to ultraviolet downloads?

                No, I agree that if you have unlimited downloads from the providers it would make sense to just download from there. We don't know if that will be the case but for this thread I am going with the hypothetical that there may be a limit. Amazon for example limits some downloads to three occurrences. I am saying that in theory, unlike Amazon where your download only ever works for you, a CFF file can be passed around freely because only those with rights can actually watch it.

                I still don't know if CFF will ever actually happen, I feel UVVU is taking a wait and see approach right now to see if streaming completely takes over before they invest too much time and money in CFF. (Plus this risk that CFF may be immediately cracked)
