Tried it just now, great picture quality. They give you the ability to watch it full screen (wide screen) too, also with great picture quality. However, you need to have strong connection to allow smooth playback.

@ tripplite

i only comment negatively on anti-consumer actions.

you know i almost choked on my breakfast & fell off my chair when i read that story. respect to disney, but lets what the whole pan out with a pinch of scepticism.

@ DoggRuff

The first movie is already there and will continue THROUGH the 13th. It doesn't start then.

Well, I applaud disney for this. Well kinda. I do believe this to be a bit of a marketing scheme. As a father of a 7 year old daughter, who owns every single F'n disney movie and every single F'n thing that has disney princess' on it I think this is totally a marketing thing. I've watched those movies so many times I can go word for word on, Little Mermaid, Monster's Inc, and the Lion King. Ya she's watched them that many times. How is this a marketing schemem you ask????..........
Children are not happy watching a movie just once, or a couple days...They wanna watch it over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and, well you get the idea. So if Disney were to play them online for a limited amount of time, then yank them off the children would go nutz. And parents would have to buy the dvds to keep there sanity. Daddy I want Daddy i want, daddy i want.....ya children are great thanks disney.
But this is actually a really good idea and pleases just a little bit.
