    Is D2D successful?

    If you can release numbers, I would like to know how many people have used D2D? hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands? I just want to know if the program is successful, or if it is a waste of money

    Re: Is D2D successful?

    Walmart and Vudu have not released any numbers. I don't know that they will. But we do have some numbers from Ultraviolet. It took UV from October to late February to hit a million users. During the month of April (which launched D2D), the number of UV users went up by another million in just that month. This boost has slowed down. UV hit 3 million last week.

    That shows there was excitement and lot of people who tried it or wanted to try it. But as far as how many d2d users became return customers, how many movies have been converted, and other questions like that will probably go unanswered.

      I think Ultraviolet is successful. Vudu's D2D program is just one of the perks to add more movies into your Ultraviolet library.

        Re: Is D2D successful?

        Truthfully, I never knew what VUDU was prior to D2D, now I'm a borderline fanatic lol. In my experience thus far, VUDU's been fantastic. The HDX quality looks great on my PS3 with a 120hz/motionflow TV. My only two annoyances so far are the movies not sorting alphabetically and having a 30% chance of the Walmart employee knowing how to do D2D.

        I actually think a music solution is one of the keys to bring more people into the fold. Ideally, I'd have one device that does it all. The Apple TV will do that if you've been in the iTunes ecosystem but the video quality is not HDX and VUDU has way way more content available. I would love to either use the PS3 or WDTV box for everything. VUDU works on both but there are no good solutions for either to play my music. Ideally, if Amazon released their music cloud player app for either device, that would seal the deal for me.

        Another challenge is, while D2D is great, there's currently no way for me to transfer my movie/TV shows that i purchased from iTunes to UV. I've spent well over 2k through the years on both so repurchasing them won't work for me unless I hit the lottery :-) Anyway, hopefully the VUDU numbers will continue to climb, I surely tell every one who listen about it.

          If Apple ever joins UV there is a chance your iTunes purchased content would sync with your UV content the same way that previously purchased Vudu content has.

            Spotify is available on the WDTV. For me, it is well worth it (similar to Netflix) and gives me pretty much cloud music option im looking for

              I agree with Starkenator. Any streaming movie company that adopts Ultraviolet would sync your library. I also believe Vudu would dominte all even if Apple joins because if they did, more itunes customers would use not only itunes but Vudu for their big screen stay at home movie night because they are able to sync their itunes library through Ultraviolet to Vudu. itunes customers would be encourage to get a vudu enabled device they can hook up their big screen to watch their movie.

                iTunes customers might just get an appleTV to watch their movies on.
