Yeah, I had Blade Runner on VUDU which went to Amazon and iTunes okay, but my iTunes copy of The Final Cut didnt go anywhere else, despite being compatible with MA. Like someone else said, growing pains. Im giving leeway with it being the first day and all

I'd just give it time.
itunes is weird for me too, had to do two reconnects and itunes is finally pulling movies in, but not showing up anywhere else. I havent used itunes in years, but have like a dozen disney films there that would be nice everywhere else.
My SD copy of Elf from Google is still SD on iTunes and Vudu
Were you disconnecting on an iphone by chance? It says i have to disconnect in iTunes but I don't see the option within the app anywhere.

My copy of blade runner from Vudu took over an hour to show up in Google play.

Finally got all of my accounts connected. All movies are showing up except for the Godfather Trilogy that I purchased on iTunes...?
To everyone who's having problems with iTunes, you just have to patient. I had the same problem today and it took awhile for the movies to show up on my iTunes account. It's weird because it was instantaneous last night. I just don't recommend constantly disconnecting/connecting your accounts to see if it refreshes.
Lionsgate hasn't signed on yet.

dredd isn't compatible. I had a bunch of vudu not pull over due to studios I guess. I'm fine if MA pulls whatever into vudu since i use that the most on my xbox.
That is a Lionsgate film. Lionsgate is not on board yet. Everyone but Lionsgate, MGM, & Paramount are.
It's only a matter of time that they get on board because all the major studios are and UV is essentially being killed off for this.

MGM too? I was wondering why Casino Royale didnt show up

Do I need to make a new account if I already have a DMA account?
Yes, use the same email so your DMA transfers over.

Cool thanks.
You don't need to do that, you can manually transfer your DMA over after you create the new account (I just used my Google account for the new MA account).

Not letting me link to Amazon for some reason.
This seems like a game-changer for people who want 4K. If I am not mistaken if you link up all your accounts, you will get the 4K version (regardless of if you had a 1080p version before) when you look at your collection via iTunes (or whatever Apple device like an AppleTV) as long as Apple has a 4K copy.

For some reason my Mad Max Fury Road copy showed up as the Black & Chrome edition on Amazon Video, nice to have 2 versions now.

Ugh, I'm going to buy an Apple TV aren't I? If it keeps me from rebuying even a 1/4th of the movies we have it'll be worth it.
Just checked my account after reading your post & the same thing happened to me. Now I know what I'm watching when I get home.

It really is just movies anywhere. UV needs to stay around for TV libraries.

Nah, they can definitely make it include TV eventually if they wanted. Sony is on board with this and Sony is one of the most beloved television teams.

My dma migration fails each time saying my account can't be migrated.

This is some of the coolest shit. Once I got my new TV last year, I started going completely digital with my movies through Google Play, and for whatever reason, I wanted all my digital purchases tied to just that single library. I was always disappointed whenever movies I wanted would become cheaper on other storefronts, while they remained MSRP on Google Play.
But today, I added like 20 movies to my account because of how cheap you can get some Ultraviolet keys for. The only one I'm having problems with is a key for Transformers: The Last Knight, which redeemed just fine on UV, and is showing up in my Vudu library, but has yet to show up in my Moviesanywhere library, or any other libraries. And I've added movies since then that have shown up.
Gonna be disappointed if that one doesn't go through for whatever reason.

Last Knight isn't movies anywhere. It won't show up. Paramount hasn't signed up yet.

I want to connect my Vudu account but it won't let me log in to the damn Vudu site despite resetting my password twice 
Got Amazon and DMA hooked up though - does it require the iTunes client for Apple? When I clicked connect it said download it or open it. I'm at work so I won't have iTunes here.

Oh damn, I had just assumed it was literally everything. I knew it was too good to be true.

I don't get it. The account is working fine at Disney.
Also none of my movies from Google Play are syncing either. Like they think I have to buy Elf and Gravity, even though I have them already.

It looks like only 1 of my Disney movies are available(big hero 6) that's fucking weird. my vudu and Google stuff looks to be here but no clue what that's all about
Edit: nevermind, did the migrate and it worked. Strange how it only picked up The one movie first though

servers are being slammed right now. It's going to take some time. None of my movies are showing up in my itunes library. Going to give it til tomorrow before I start freaking out
I think Big Hero 6 is free when you make the account. I don't remember buying that and I have it in my library.

Called Apple, were gonna do a three way call with a MA rep to see whats up with the 4K streaming.
I dont expect it to go anywhere, but itll be interesting nonetheless

lol that's where I'm at. Funny thing is I would have never thought I would buy an apple tv.
I was considering buying a 4k roku but, with the free 4k upgrades on itunes it seems like a no brainer. You win this one apple.

Interesting. Let us know what you hear.
Clear your cookies. log out. Log in to the old DMA website. Open a new tab. Login to the new Movies Anywhere website.
This worked for me. I tried and failed previously at least 20 times before I did this.

I'm not familiar with this kind of service. Do you have to stream it, or you can download it and watch later?
