All of this is true unless you are a member of the American military stationed at an American military base overseas. In that case, none of the download/online options apply, and your only recourse is to purchse the dvd. I can download computer programs, but not movies.

I can't download movies through Playstation, Tivo, Xbox live, Amazon on demand, or streaming video through through the networks websites. Once again Hollywood is telling the American military "We don't like you and we won't do anything to make your life even a little bit better."
