is there any plan to support Vudu at some point in the future? Seems like it would be a real nice enhancement for you customers.
The addition of
VUDU in AS is
MUST in
my opinion.
A recent trip outside the U.S. made me
rethink any future VUDU purchases. I would like to see VUDU in AS more out of
spite now than when I first recommended it.
CAUTION!
The following is my personal gripe and vudu awareness for travelers...
Considering VUDU is not
officially accessible outside the United States...
Code:
https://support.vudu.com/vudusupport/s/article/Can-I-use-the-Vudu-service-in-a-different-country
...
people with purchased content will not be able to access their media while travelling. I couldn't even access their FORUM overseas!
Pathetic.
Although streaming services have regional license restrictions, they only apply to content included with a streaming subscription or available to rent... not content ALREADY purchased.
These vudu forum posts were useless excuses:
Code:
https://forum.vudu.com/forum/vudu/general-discussion/546234-vudu-access-while-abroad
https://forum.vudu.com/forum/technical-help/general-help/60452-logging-in-outside-of-the-united-states
When I was out of the country, I was able to access my purchased content through prime, Apple TV+ and Movies Anywhere (MA)... but not VUDU. There were content streaming limitations... but that was obvious and known.
I was pissed when I couldn't access my purchased content through VUDU. I could access all the MA eligible titles through the services mentioned earlier. However, for the non-MA titles, I could not... because VUDU is denying access to their services altogether.
Using
nord vpn to access VUDU was a NO GO (forum only), but I had success using a
7-day Free Trial of
express vpn for streaming; I was on a 4-week trip.
Because VUDU is currently
only available WITHIN the United States... this seems like a good reason to stick it to them... by sticking it in AS.
