Thanks, I'm trying that then. I haven't heard good things about their customer service though.

It's where you can watch Disney movies you've already purchased with digital copy inserts on the internet for "free". If you've already bought the movie it's not free. Plus, I for one have no interest in watching a movie I have on dvd, online.

I just found this on DMR:
http://disney.eprize.net/movierewards/i ... ILS_2511&a

I think it's a new reward. Certainly better than the adventure book. Looks pretty handy to me, but it looks like the water bottle is plastic. I am a little confused about the key ring compass light emitter thingamabob whozit/whatzit whatchamacallit.

It's a grape soda pin (from Up). Also looks to be new. I think it's the same one you could get with the Costco Up Blu-ray? :?

Disney Movies Online is currently in its beta test stage. Disney Movie Rewards members have been granted an early trial of the service. The 12 most recent movies that came with digital copies will automatically be available to you on the site when you enter your DMR codes from them.

The intentions for the service is to allow consumers to watch their movies on any internet ready device. Currently, it is only available on computers, but eventually your streaming Disney movie will be viewable from smart phones, internet enabled cable boxes and TV sets, Apple TVs and Roku boxes, and even X-Box 360 and PS3s. Instead of taking up 1-2GBs of hard drive space for each digital copy, you have the option of streaming it instead. I have tested it out and the streaming quality is the best I've ever seen. I would rate it as DVD quality.

When the site goes live, consumers will be able to purchase movies from Disney Movies Online in digital streaming form. While I personally am not yet ready to give up my discs, it's a nice option for more technologically advanced individuals who want more freedom with their digital copies. Disney will also offer streaming rentals through the service and their vast catalog of unreleased content could make Disney Movies Online the perfect medium to give Disney fans access to the shows and films they've been begging for all these years. I participated in a survey about the service about 2 months ago. It was formally referred to under the codename "Keychest."

When you use the service, you have the option of submitting comments to Disney about what you like and dislike about the service and the ability to offer suggestions about ways they can improve it and what type of content you would like to see them provide.

I wrote a blog about it earlier, which can be read here.
I'm currently watching and reviewing every Disney film in chronological order. You can follow along at my blog, The Disney Films, and also follow me on Twitter.

Yeah, I noticed that Up was now on my Movies Online List. Haven't checked the quality though...

:LOL: I laughed so hard when I read that! It is pretty amazing it is a whistle, compass, key ring AND a light all in one!

The one from Costco looks like the pin and cap are melted together. "GRAPE SODA" is also embossed somewhat. DMR's probably has an extra separate pin on the back, but it looks a lot better than Costco's. I actually ordered one and I will post pictures here when it comes!

Thanks magicwands! I just jotted down pretty much everything in the Part of Your World Song, those lines:
I've got gadgets and gizmos a plenty,
I've got whozits and whatzits galore.
You want thingamabobs? I've got twenty.
It's a whistle too?!

I might get the pin. as for the key ring, I have something that's not a key ring, but a flashlight, compass, screwdriver, and a swiss army knife all in one.

I just ordered the pin. It's cute, cheap, and there's honestly very little else I want.

In other words, it's for people with small apartments full of Ikea furniture that don't have room for media libraries. :wink:

I just checked my DMR account and I can currently watch UP and Bolt.

They also posted up the plastic sleeves and tray that you can buy from the Disney Movie Club site... i would recommend not getting them.. the size is weird... you only an fit 2 dvds.. you put the note or paper that it comes with between the cover slip and you can see the back cover at all

I prefer keeping my DVDs in their cases where they belong. That storage unit sounds like a waste of points. I am still keeping my points for a better reward.

Okay, and I thought the Digital Copy was worthless.

WOW!!! My Princess & The Frog ticket stub points posted just now. That is record time. Just saw it Friday & mailed them Saturday morning. :D

It took a little while, but my Christmas Carol tickets finally went through, so I guess they do accept the receipt-style tickets (mine were from the Alamo Drafthouse theater).

I was very tempted by the "Up" grape soda bottle cap pin, I must say, especially since there aren't really any good "Up" items for adult male collectors on a budget (who have too many plush toys as it is and are trying to get rid of some, ha); no statuettes or action figures or nothin'. I had the same problem with Enchanted and now with Princess and the Frog, though they do have a WDCC Tiana that I hope to get someday (unless the Electric Tiki new toon ladies line comes out with her). All there are are snowglobes, which I stopped getting because they lose water, small PVC figs, which are too small and I want to clear mine out for better stuff as it is, and, of course, pins. Hopefully, this pin will be around for a little while though, because I find the Disney Movie Club DVDs too irresistable, and I ended up ordering Legend of Lobo. I am currently waiting on that one and the Moonpilot/Monkey's Uncle double feature I ordered on the 2nd double points day.

Still haven't heard back about my points for the Princess and the Frog soundtrack...
