Disney's free Movies Anywhere service is expanding thanks to partnerships with Fox, Sony Pictures, Universal, and Warner Bros, allowing customers who purchase movies from services like iTunes and Amazon Video to watch all of their content in one place using the Movies Anywhere apps.
Disney has been using Movies Anywhere for Disney, Marvel, Pixar, and Lucasfilm titles since 2014, but now the available content library has greatly expanded. The new Movies Anywhere service replaces the existing Disney version.
With a Movies Anywhere account, Movies Anywhere content purchased from Google Play, Amazon Video, iTunes, and Vudu can be accessed the service. It can also be used for digital content that comes alongside physical copies of DVDs or Blu-Rays so long as they're from Disney or one of its partner studios.
There are Movies Anywhere apps for the Apple TV and iOS devices, and the service is limited to the United States at the current time.
While most movie studios are on board, allowing users to watch more than 7,300 titles, Paramount and Lionsgate have yet to sign up.
Users who sign up for Movies Anywhere and connect their accounts with one digital retailer can get access to Ice Age and Ghostbusters (2016) for free. With two accounts added to the service, users can also get access to Big Hero 6, Jason Bourne, and The Lego Movie at no cost.

seriously though, I wish they did this with games. i must have bought grand theft auto 5 at least 3 times already.
CDs and Blu-Rays are still the best investment. Think of people who bought music on Rhapsody and Zune. One day iTunes Store will go away and so will the movies you think you own. It might be 50 years from now but it'll happen.
and good luck passing down your movies and TV shows to your kids. You can't gift purchases or will them when you die.
