Haha, yes, Amazon, where they offer digital copies of movies that can only be downloaded when your physical copy arrives in the mail. Fooking ridiculous.

? All the times I've done that, Amazon sends me a disc in the mail and then gives me an immediate 48 hour rental. I don't wait for the disc. Unless you're talking about the "UltraViolet" or "Digital Copy" thing, but that's not Aamzon. That's the studio. You get the same thing in a store.

Amazon even has a whole page that explains the difference. http://www.amazon.com/Digital-Copy-DVD/b?ie=UTF8&node=721726...

Yes, the Digital Copy - I was very confused about it.
