Who's downloading this early?

Nope. I've got a BR player and homecinemaset and HDTV. I didn't pay that much money for all those stuff to then watch movies on a laptop with crappy speakers. ;)
 
What quality is the download and what drm is on it ? My bluray player can handle 1020 mp4...

It'll be from a streaming service like Vudu.

Exactly. The WalMart pre-orders that include the download are specifically for Vudu I believe. Someone mentioned earlier about watching it from a laptop.. if you have a Smart TV or a BluRay player with SmartApps on them then Vudu is likely installed on there and you should be able to watch it in HD from these locations.
 
I have the DVD on pre order from Amazon, but I'm also downloading it for my Kindle. Yes, small screen, crappy speakers but it will stave off withdrawals until I get the DVD in my hot fan girl hands!

On a superficial check it seems to be US only :rolleyes:
 
I'm not doing any early downloads. As it stands I'll probably end up buying the Blu-Ray/DVD combo-pack from Target as it comes with an extra disc of extra special features. I love special features, commentary tracks especially.

My PC screen is a TV so I could watch it on there just fine, but I think I'll wait till the bluray.

Um, downloading what?

Gee, what forum was this posted in?
RAMA, you've been making a habit lately of starting threads with posts which are either cryptic (as this one) or consist only of a title and link. That needs work.

You should at least make it clear what the thread is about and (preferably) offer some comment of your own as a place for discussion to begin; it shouldn't have to fall to someone else to explain your topic for you.

What you should not do is act like a dick toward someone who's only asking you what your thread is about.



M', not a mind-reader and didn't know WTF you were talking about, either​

I thought it was major, well-known news that STID will be available early for download. Did I really need to clarify this on a STID forum that includes tons of DVD-Bluray news? Apparently so...:rolleyes:

I don't mind admitting I'm a really picky snob when it comes to AV quality, so HD or not, a download won't compete with the BD. The UK release date is the 02nd September, so I can definitely wait to immerse myself in the movie on my set up at home with the real deal.

CAN.NOT.WAIT!
 
I've ordered the villain set. this contains the movie in 2D 3D and a limited edition from hot wheels USS Vengence !!! Play.com £44 !!!
