Disney Movies Anywhere – My First Digital Download Experience

Disney Movies Anywhere - My First Digital Download Experience

How do you watch your favorite Disney movies? Do you kick it old school with the classic VHS tapes? Do you stick with DVDs and Blue-rays? Maybe you just catch them when they are on tv? Did you know that you can purchase, watch, and download your Disney, Pixar, and Marvel movies digitally? With Disney Movies Anywhere, you only have to buy your movies once and you can watch them anywhere. I had the incredible opportunity to speak with Eddie Drake, the VP Product Developer of Disney Movies Anywhere and I gained some great knowledge of DMA and all of it's amazing features.

The first thing that you need to know is that about 90% of the Disney, Pixar, and Marvel DVDs and Blue-rays that you buy a physical copy of will contain a free digital download code. This means that you can log into your Disney Movies Anywhere account, enter your codes, and grab the free digital copy of movies that you already own. Just check the inside of the box and you may find a code. What's great about this is that you can watch your favorite films on-the-go. You can stream your movies through an internet connected device using the DMA app or you can download your digital copy onto your device and watch your movies anytime. This is perfect for all of your travels. Another great idea is to bring your tablet or phone on shopping trips, so your children can watch their favorite movies while you are taking care of the boring, adult responsibilities. 

Disney Movies Anywhere - My Collection

Here is my collection after adding all of my digital copies! I sorted through all of my Disney movies to find these – only found two digital codes, but earned some good Disney Movie Rewards.

Another great feature is the Disney Movies Anywhere digital dashboard. It's so simple to navigate. I had the opportunity to play with the app on some of the compatible devices and it was much easier to use than I expected. The navigation is very smooth. It doesn't freeze up, isn't glitchy, and I haven't experienced any technical issues. You can explore the impressive library of over 400 digital titles in a breeze. Right now you can purchase digital movies on the app with all of the compatible devices, except the Amazon Fire TV and Roku apps. That is something that they are working on, though. I did ask Eddie Drake if the app was available on Smart TVs, but it is not available now. It's something that they may consider in the future.

  1. I love that they have an app now. I have been downloading our digital copies for a few years, but an app makes it more convenient for sure.

    I don’t purchase many DVDs anymore because I am mostly digital now. I loved when it did purchase them there would be a code to redeem a digital version. Glad that Disney has jumped on the bandwagon as well! Now if all of these companies could have one platform where I can access all of my digital movies… lol
