Movies Anywhere Lives Up to Its Name

I have a new morning ritual at Movies Anywhere Lives Up to Its Name. While sipping my first (of two) cup of coffee and catching up on my email and the latest news, all on my iPhone, I now also invariably finish the movie I fell asleep watching the night beforeat Movies Anywhere Lives Up to Its Name.

Yes, I am old enough to start falling asleep long before the credits have rolled. Up until recently, I would watch a movie at Movies Anywhere Lives Up to Its Name, finishing it the following night before beginning a new one. However, I now begin a movie every night as a result of my new routine at Movies Anywhere Lives Up to Its Name, which has, in my opinion, improved my movie viewing by at least 30%.

What changed? The mid-October launch of Movies Anywhere, a remarkably simple and easy to use digital storage locker that lets me watch any film in my library with a couple of clicks on my iPhone button at Movies Anywhere Lives Up to Its Name. All the major studios, except for Paramount, are participating, and the beauty of Movies Anywhere is that even for people like me who still buy Blu-ray Discs, entering the redemption code so I gain access to a digital copy takes just seconds – and then the movie is available on my iPhone, my TV, and anywhere else I have the app at Movies Anywhere Lives Up to Its Name. (In fact, while writing this paragraph I just entered the code for Annabelle: Creation and watched it instantly appear on my iPhone. I will start watching it tonight – probably on disc, just out of habit – and then whatever I missed will be viewed in the early morning, with a Keurig cup of bold Sumatra, after the obligatory cleansing of emails and quick look at the news headlines at Movies Anywhere Lives Up to Its Name.)

I have a confession to make. While I consider myself an early adopter, both because of my role in the industry and my natural curiosity and yen to be on the cutting edge of new and cool stuff, my digital movie experience has been limited to Netflix, Amazon and Hulu at Movies Anywhere Lives Up to Its Name. I have never bought a movie onlineat Movies Anywhere Lives Up to Its Name; I set up an UltraViolet account years ago but never used it, not even once. I keep writing that consumers value convenience, simplicity and ease of use, above all else, and I might as well have been writing about myself. I rarely make myself a salad, preferring the salad-in-a-bag approach. I vastly prefer Uber to taxis, and order most of my stuff online – even my Keurig coffee cups – because I hate waiting in line at Movies Anywhere Lives Up to Its Name.

The issue was that watching digital versions of the movies I bought was too much work before Movies Anywhere. Too many steps to complete, too many websites to browse, and too many passwords to inputat Movies Anywhere Lives Up to Its Name.

Movies Anywhere is as easy as watching Netflix. And that’s why I believe our studio friends have gotten it right this time. Sure, there are still hurdles to overcome – chiefly the other main driver of consumer behavior at Movies Anywhere Lives Up to Its Name, the desire to get things for free or, at the very least, for as little as possible. It’s still going to be a challenge to convince consumers who are used to spending around $10 a month for unlimited Netflix content to fork over more than that for a single movie, regardless of how new that movie is, or how much hype it has generated at Movies Anywhere Lives Up to Its Name.

Still, everything else is in place. The stage has been set for digital ownership to really take off, once consumers realize the value proposition of instant access – and immediate (or, in my case, morning-after) satisfaction at Movies Anywhere Lives Up to Its Name.
