When purchasing the movie Grand Torino, it came with a digital copy, which I have downloaded to Media Player. My question is now how do I burn it to a DVD?? Any advice is greatly appreciated. I have a DVD burner, but dont think I have any software.

It depends - if it's DRM protected, might not be possible.
If it's open, give one of the popular DVD all-in-one packages
(mentioned on these forums hundreds of times a week)
a try. For example, DVD Flick or AVStoDVD.

The digital copy is meant for installing on your computer. It comes with a password so you can unlock it and play the movie. If you want a copy of the movie on a DVD Disc, just rip the original files and burn.

99% of all problems are between the computer and the chair.

When I get these "Digital Copies" I just say **** that. I just take the Movie's DVD, pop it into my computer's drive, start up DVD43 and copy the VIDEO_TS folder to my desktop. Then I fire up Handbrake and rip the VIDEO_TS to 'avi.' or '.mpg4' or anything I want. When you rip it to your computer yourself it has no DRM and you can put it on any device in your house.

Handbrake works on Linux, Mac (Intel or Power PC), and Windows.

Well that sucks a monkeys left nut. So I own a printed lie
"Your Digital Copy can be easily transferred to your computer, ipod, iphone and other portable media players, so you can experience WANTED anywhere, anytime."

Well it won't play on my PSP. I can't experience it anywhere, anytime. Can't believe nobody has cracked this yet or even better - filed a class action lawsuit yet.

And you didn't read the fine print.

There is a very narrow list of what PMPs the digital copy can be copied to. PSP is not on the list.

read the fine print as I have it here in front of me and it says nothing about it not being able to play in the psp. Its nothing to rip a std dvd copy into a compatible format but I gave "them" a chance and they blew it.

"it says nothing about it not being able to play in the psp."

IMHO, a pretty weak argument.

I cannot speak specifically to the Digital Copy that you own, but I know for a fact that on Disney DVDs and "The Watchmen", which I have right in front of me, they are very clear to state:

"Compatible with iTunes and Windows Media devices."

No, it doesn't say that you CAN'T use a PSP, but then again, it's pretty clear that since a PSP is neither an iTunes device not a Windows Media device, you shouldn't expect it to play on a PSP.
