Disney launches with MOVIES ANYWHERE alongside other studios including Universal, WB, Sony, and more

The digital movie streaming world is tumultuous at best but the new launch of MOVIES ANYWHERE may be one step towards the unification of the process. The Walt Disney Studios is one of the launch participants in the debut of MOVIES ANYWHERE, an unprecedented free app and website that enables consumers to manage and watch their personal digital movie collections across studios, retailers and platforms.

Here’s some more details courtesy of Disney:

With The Walt Disney Studios, encompassing Disney, Pixar, Marvel, and Lucasfilm, on board alongside Sony Pictures Entertainment, Twentieth Century Fox, Universal Pictures, and Warner Bros. Entertainment, MOVIES ANYWHERE offers over 7,300 movies at launch.

By downloading the app and linking their Amazon Video, Google Play, iTunes and/or Vudu accounts, users will see their respective digital retail collections come together in their MOVIES ANYWHERE account and sync in their connected digital retail accounts as well. MOVIES ANYWHERE is also where consumers can redeem digital copy codes from eligible Blu-rays and DVDs.

The elegance and functionality of the new app is explained by Karin Gilford, General Manager of the MOVIES ANYWHERE team: “MOVIES ANYWHERE means that consumers never have to remember where they purchased a film or which device they can watch it on, because all of their eligible movies will be centralized within their Movies Anywhere library and available across platforms through the Movies Anywhere app and website and also available at their connected digital retailers.

MOVIES ANYWHERE users can watch their collected films across numerous platforms including Amazon Fire devices; Android devices and Android TV; Apple TV; Chromecast; iPhone, iPad and iPod touch; Roku(R) devices and popular browsers, with more platforms and retailers to come.

To celebrate the launch, new users can add up to five free movies*— including Disney’s hit animated film Big Hero 6—to their MOVIES ANYWHERE collection by connecting their first two qualifying digital retailer accounts.

And there’s more great news for existing DISNEY MOVIES ANYWHERE users: To start watching your Disney, Pixar, Marvel, and Lucasfilm movie collection in MOVIES ANYWHERE, simply download the MOVIES ANYWHERE app or go to MoviesAnywhere.com and log in with your existing Disney username and password. All of your previously purchased and redeemed titles will be in your MOVIES ANYWHERE collection, and you can link your participating digital retailer accounts to add your eligible titles from participating studios as well.
