Who's got the biggest VUDU (D2D, UV) library here?

    Re: Who's got the biggest VUDU (D2D, UV) library here?

    Heh, I thought I was bad for being in the 200+ range. Now up to approx. 268 though that count includes some titles that I have in both SD and HD or HDX, at least as shown through Vudu.

    I've got a couple of titles that are only at CinemaNow or only at Vudu and not available on (for example) Flixster, but not that many as I'm trying to hold off on getting anything that isn't UV compatible. That said, I did snag a few things that I'd like to have from either of the partner providers just so I wouldn't be frustrated in not having a flick that I might want to see available when I want it.

    My biggest frustrations (besides not having Disney/MGM and many FOX titles available for conversion) have been in not being able to get the Unrated versions of titles via D2D. If I have it on Blu-ray in Unrated, I want Unrated, not Theatrical digital/streaming copies. Seeing an Unrated version available, even if not in D2D, just boils my blood, but then I've seen quickly enough that if I buy the Unrated version that it is typically not UV so it doesn't cross the various partner providers and locks me into one provider or the other for that copy.

    If/when Disney becomes available for D2D conversion, I'm gonna wind up expanding my collection by approx. 100 - 130 titles pretty quickly. Especially with Pixar titles. I hope Disney cooperates and allows the price for the conversions to be down in the $2 range, but (shhhh!, don't tell them) I'd probably go as high as $5 title for BD -> streaming/digital version for many of those titles if I had to. Beyond that though, sorry, enough of the double and triple dipping. I've paid enough times for these flicks and paying full fare again just won't happen.

      Re: Who's got the biggest VUDU (D2D, UV) library here?

      I'm now over 400+ titles. My VUDU Movie page, says 401 titles, but I know I have a bundle or two, and then I have about 20 or so TV Seasons, so I would estimate that I'm now sitting at: 425 UV Titles!

      I only stated collecting titles in August of 2012.... I will probably hit 500 by the end of the year, if not more. I've slowed down because I've mostly converted all but 50 or so movies that are not eligible at this time... If Disney joins, I'm sure I'll have another spending spree..... (not looking forward to the cost , but I'm excited to be getting there titles )

      One of my other wishes, besides Disney coming on board is that we need more TV seasons to be UV compliant and D2D. There is very little catalog available for TV shows using UV at the moment....

        I know what you are doing this weekend..... Watching 1080p movies...


        Alas, sadly your foe is relentless. I am just getting back from Walmart where I added seven. All are HDX upgrades from DVDs.

        1) Taking Lives (Warner Bros. - 2004)
        2) The Stepford Wives (Paramount - 2004)
        3) Peter Pan (Columbia - 2003)
        4) Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium (Mandate Pictures - 2007)
        5) Surf's Up (Columbia - 2007)
        6) Nanny McPhee (Universal - 2005)
        7) The Road to El Dorado (Dreamworks - 2000)

        My odometer now shows 114, but I get to add +3 for my Indiana Jones collection and +3 for my Mission Impossible collection, bringing my actual total to 120.

        Keep trying though and maybe one day you will be as cool as me.

          Yes, I too agree. However, Bluray when it first came out had the same problem. Say I wanted a certain cut of a movie in Bluray, but only other cuts had been made available. UV has had much faster acceptance/conversion ratios then Bluray.

          in 18 months, UV has gone from its first title to over 8000 and still growing very quickly. This is a faster acceptance then Bluray.

          Also, with Bluray, there was no upgrade path. I did not have the option to bring in a DVD copy or mail it in somewhere and for $5 get it upgraded to Bluray. UV is the first to offer such a program and in my estimation, it is an awesome deal.

          do be patient. The UV catalog will continue to expand. However, I do agree it is frustrating to no end not being able to convert an unrated or director's cut when that is what you own. Even worse when the unrated or directors cut is in the streaming provider's catalog, but a D2D lands you on a theatrical version.

          I am not sure, but I think the D2D program was designed with these hammer-and-tong decisions built in to streamline the conversion process. The D2D program is really a low cost incentive program which is designed to spark interest in UV while they continue to drive for critical mass. We get to take advantage of a low cost incentive program, but there are these caveats that need be swallowed, unfortunately.

            I am over 1600 just movie titles now. I watch TV shows on my plex server. I don't see getting to much higher until they start releasing some for MGM, Disney and some of the obscure companies.

            I would purchase the other titles I would like if they were under $10 for hdx. They did put I think 12 titles up for $9.99 but I have all of them I would like to see titles like Evil Dead 2, Dances with wolves, etc. Even though they are not UV yet I think that day will come.

              Yeah, Disney needs to get on board. I'm pretty much not buying their animation DVD/Blu combos until they get their sh!t together and get on board (and drop their ridiculously high prices to "reasonable" levels). Well, okay, I'll probably buy them just to have them for the future and then HOPE they get on board eventually.

                People were curious. Ive got 2588 movies and 27 tv shows right now. I anticipate it going up now with the credit we just received. Probably top 1 % but nowhere near the guy who had 4000.

                    I just passed 1000 movies. I'm running out of D2D eligible titles to convert.

                    Only have 22 seasons of TV. I'd add a lot more if they had D2D for TV.

                      I am right behind you...I just added 11 more movies and now have 966 movies and 19 TV shows.

                      I would love to add some of the shows I own through D2D. Shows like:

                      24
                      Buffy the Vampire Slayer
                      Smallville
                      Star Trek: Enterprise
                      Little House On the Prairie
                      Friends
                      Coach
                      Mad About You
                      The Andy Griffith Show
                      Sliders
                      Planet of the Apes
                      Moonlighting
                      Matlock
                      Murder, She Wrote
                      The Father Dowling Mysteries
                      Battlestar Gallactica
                      Buck Rogers in the 25th Century
                      Growing Pains

                        When do you people that have 1000 or more titles and tv shows have the time to watch them all? I'm only at 346 and it takes around 2 years to watch them all including the rentals I get from Netflix.

                          At some point it becomes more about collecting, than watching. I'm at 670 total on Vudu and I often ask myself the same question!

                            Plus with linked accounts more than 1 person uses the library. I have 3 others who use my library.
