OOTP DVD to allow portable media and PC downloads
OOTP DVD to allow portable media and PC downloads Warner Brothers is pioneering a new digital download concept with the upcoming Order of the Phoenix DVD release, Video Business reports. WB will be including two digital copies of the fifth Potter film on its DVD, which you'll be able to download onto your PC or portable media player:

Jim Wuthrich, Warner senior VP of digital distribution, unveiled the development at Tuesday’s DVD Forum conference here, as he discussed the studio’s plans to meet what it sees as a growing consumer demand for digital content.

“You can buy the DVD and have the option of the digital copy,” said Wuthrich. “This future-proofs the format for consumers.”


While there is no word yet on exactly which media players you'll be able to put OOTP on, we can assume WB is targeting the very large iPod and iPhone markets. Both devices are capable of playing movies on-the-go. The DVD will be released in the UK on November 12th and the US on December 11th. Thanks to Lauren for the tip!

#6, so whats that mean for the people who want the hd-dvd version? can i still put it in my comp and get the ipod version? neat!


Posted by Yummy Oct 10th 2007

I suppose that's great, but what I REALLY want is for the DVD to come with a 3D option, like when they showed the film on IMAX. It was AWESOME, and they should give us the option to watch in 3d at home with 3d glasses supplied with the DVD. that would ROCK!

Kewl. :]


Posted by grndtheftxautumn Oct 10th 2007

so like, we could put it on our iPods?


Posted by Dobbysgirl13 Oct 10th 2007

THAT"S SOOO COOL!!!


Posted by hothoney111 Oct 10th 2007

i have been waiting for WB to develop a deal with iTunes so we can download llof the harry potter movies that way! that would be so awesome! :)


Posted by Willowrose Oct 10th 2007

Yay! This is actually really exciting. I don't have an i anything but it's neat to know that when I decide to get one, I can travel around with OOTP! :)


Posted by Winky_911 Oct 10th 2007

wow thats awesome!!!


Posted by Yummy Oct 10th 2007

I have a nano. The screen is about 1 inch by 1 inch. What's the pleasure of watching OOTP on such a small screen, or even on my pc or laptop. I want a BIG Honkin' screen to watch these movies on, and i want neater special effects. But, I get that it's cool and the "next step."

Posted by i_loverz_HP Oct 10th 2007

have any of you guys ever read beowulf?? it is soo confusing omg!


Posted by lilbecky8 Oct 10th 2007

no i havent, but i have heard its a difficult read. I am sorry!!!! If you are confused look up sparknotes or cliffnotes or even Wiki and see if they can help. just dont rely on the pages for everythign, sometimes the info isnt correct


Posted by randomchat Oct 10th 2007

Although I love it, I'm not sure this is a good idea. What about piracy?


Posted by i_loverz_HP Oct 10th 2007

yah i will. privacy for what?


Posted by lilbecky8 Oct 10th 2007

well its not piracy if WB is saying its otay and allowing iPod and iTunes and whatever else to ahve access to it, so that consuemrs can dled it. i am sure there will be some kind of charge


Posted by sirius_lee Oct 10th 2007

Hey guys, im in griffindo in MNI an my characteris arthur, but I really dont get things


Posted by lilbecky8 Oct 10th 2007

is this april?


Posted by sirius_lee Oct 10th 2007

YES


Posted by sirius_lee Oct 10th 2007

so what am I supposed to do now that im sorted??


Posted by lilbecky8 Oct 10th 2007

hahah whatever you want! you have to do things so you earn galleons. there are secrets hidden around, you can play the lottery, you can go to class and answer questions. If you want to send messages to people you have to buy an owl and if you want to duel you have to buy a wand.


Posted by sirius_lee Oct 10th 2007

I just sent u a message after buying a school now, and I basically have no money now. YAY this is fun


Posted by lilbecky8 Oct 10th 2007

LOL i will go check my email


Posted by sirius_lee Oct 10th 2007

oh i meant to say I bought a school OWL


Posted by lilbecky8 Oct 10th 2007

i knew what you meant. i emailed you back


Posted by sirius_lee Oct 10th 2007

Yeah I got your email.


Posted by sirius_lee Oct 10th 2007

hi..... this si Ari btw.... thznks to april my mom was like continue this behaviour (i think april said i had beat her up) and then u wont be allowed on the comp so now shes trying to decide wherther i should even be allowed on the comp.... say congrats to april when she decides i shouldnt go on!!!!


Posted by lilbecky8 Oct 10th 2007

awe i am sorry!!! siblings like to make stuff up, my brother did it to me all the time. you need to get a webcam or something and record when you and April are in the room together that way your mom can see that you arent doing anything.


Posted by sirius_lee Oct 10th 2007

lol! but they nr believe me! there like april wouldnt do that! and i get punished or even SUGGESTING such a false accusation! then april walks in smirking.... they just feel sorry for her cuz shes a girl version of dudley+acne.....


Posted by lilbecky8 Oct 10th 2007

lol dudley+acne lol ugh parents!! i still dont know how to make them listen!!! they get their mind set a certain way and nothing you do can change it. (my guess is that april just wants to have more time on MN and thats why she got you in trouble, so she could have the computer back)


Posted by sirius_lee Oct 10th 2007

well i dont think that... she doesnt even wanna come on here mostly but she noes that i hate it when she does so she cums on...


Posted by lilbecky8 Oct 10th 2007

thats weird.... she really is a pain! just doing stuff to annoy you! i will gather up the cheesecakians and head over to take of this situation. duct taping her to something might work....


Posted by 55q Oct 10th 2007

To response of lil becky, (I am a little late) Its pretty obvious this group has helped drive people away. I used to see good discussion here and always it is on the decline. Who wants to try to discuss a topic if 90% of the posts are just random conversation? As to the other thing you said , I come here to hear and talk about hp, so I rather would read 50 good comments then 1000 of garbage. I doubt the staff reads through these meticulously, they have an entire site, and shouldnt be preoccupied with mountains of spam...


Posted by Grnd3lW4Ld Oct 10th 2007

YO


Posted by sirius_lee Oct 10th 2007

lmao!!!! haha i would LOVEEEEEE to see that happen!! ecspecailly by the cheesecakians!! my mom left the house a couple minutes ago and i was just on the phone wth my bf (he came back this morning and im prolly gonna go over to see him tonight) and she thought i was gonna murder her so he ran off and he had to go so i came on here...


Posted by lilbecky8 Oct 10th 2007

daaaannnnggg!!! you are one committed person! reading all the old posts and than looking for me afterwards. i really dont think our conversing has stopped people from posting. the news that is being put up now doesnt really spark a whole convo/debate. there is no speculation about what the cover means, is snape good or bad, etc. That isnt our fault. We are loyal HP fans and we are allowed on here. I am not really sorry that our chatting bothers you, we stick to one post. Go find a different one to have a "good" conversation on.


Posted by Grnd3lW4Ld Oct 10th 2007

hi siriusLEE


Posted by sirius_lee Oct 10th 2007

55q i thought i told u last nite that we dont care!!! we wanna chat HERE so we will!!! hey grinds, or should i say galubie *snickers*


Posted by lilbecky8 Oct 10th 2007

exactly what sirius_lee said, WE DONT CARE! you arent going to win, you arent going to convince us to leave. I have AIM, MSN, Facebook, Myspace and MNI where I chat with different people from here, but in the end this is the easiest way to talk with people. And we do discuss HP. And with that, I must leave! everyone have a good night and i will talk to ya all soon!!!


Posted by Grnd3lW4Ld Oct 10th 2007

ARI I SAID DONT MENTION THAT!!!! FOR NOW ON MY FORUM NAME IS NOT TO BE SPOKEN ALUD :D
