Absolutely steal but these don’t port to any other platform so unless you want to watch these on your computer it’s basically useless.

Yup - only works on select Windows laptops/desktops and select Xbox consoles. Really dumb I agree :/ It's a crazy deal though so I still bought it lol

u/tgraveline avatar

I love how they list it as Octocat in the link.

u/SD_Eragorn avatar

yup filter on our site lol

It’s strange because Amazon’s VOD platform is part of the platform-linking MoviesAnywhere service but the Amazon-owned MGM film catalog isn’t part of MA.

I naively assumed that it would be like a day-1 thing when the acquisition went through, and it wasn’t. Still? It’s hard to imagine that they won’t eventually join up.

Damn. I got so excited for a minute.

Just snagged it, thanks! 98% off is a pretty good deal and gives me a reason to revisit my 360

Self-promotion: really - check out our site if you haven't heard of us :) we have hundreds of new deals shared each day and are basically a reddit for deals. we don't sell anything - we just link to the deals like this one.

edit: as of 11:50pm PT, the price has been updated back to $129.99. Congrats to those who grabbed it and here's hoping there are no "refund" emails lol

u/jewham12 avatar

Still no refund emails as of 8:30am ET

Where was this deal in 2007 when I last had a Microsoft device?

u/GuruAskew avatar

I’d probably jump on it regardless. See my post above re: Amazon, MGM and MoviesAnywhere. It’s probably only a matter of time before Amazon adds the MGM library to the service considering the fact that their VOD platform is a MA partner. And if/when that happens these would all populate on other services provided you’ve linked your MS account. No guarantees but $5 is worth the risk.

I’ve already got digital copies made from my Blu-ray’s anyway

u/aj58soad avatar

How do you go about doing that? I just bought the blu ray collection

Dunno. My husband did it for me.

Does these work on Xbox Series X?

u/SD_Eragorn avatar
Edited

I'm 95% sure but might check to verify.

edit: it might not actually.

edit 2: someone confirmed it worked for them on the Series X.

u/DGB31988 avatar

I bought it anyway. Can’t pass up 20 cents per film in HD. If it works on the current Xbox great if not oh well… I’ll just not buy a Red Bull tommorow.

u/SD_Eragorn avatar

Let me know please when you find out? Apologies if it doesn't.

u/DGB31988 avatar

I just tried it and it does work on the Xbox Series X.

Seems like it's only in the US.

Would be nice to essentially pay $5 for "digital codes" of my 50th anniversary set, but without Movies Anywhere or anything else I guess it's a bust, but really appreciate you sharing!

u/codyjohn50 avatar

Purchased!

u/NxTbrolin avatar

Even though it's Microsoft devices only, this is an absolute steal

Damn I missed out

u/KmZ007 avatar

Bro don’t ever get me excited like that again I thought the box set was finally coming

Any way to find this on the Canadian Microsoft Store?

i don't hink so: it seems like it's a mistake, there is no way it's a deal they put out willingly: they're selling the collection at the price they STILL sell the individual movies.

Yeah, this bundle doesn't even seem to exist on the Canadian version of the store.

That's an insane deal. This has got to be a mistake lol.

Anyway, not saying don't take advantage of this but just be aware digital video purchases have been removed from peoples accounts by platform holders several times in the recent past due to lots of bullshit reasons. I stick to physical media as much as possible for this reason. That said, for 5 bucks why the hell not role the dice on it?

u/SD_Eragorn avatar
Edited

Based on other deals we've seen from Microsoft for digital movies/shows, they're generally good about letting people keep them.

That said, those were all $20-$50. This is $100ish (based on the normal sale prices of the collection). Worst case scenario, they refund and take the movies back :)

u/ThePizzaNoid avatar

Yup. Low risk, high reward investment.

I think the bullshit reasons were that the videos were given away for free by mistake, rather than for any charge at all.

$129 on series S in the States. Good on those that got it that’s awesome.

Fuck I missed out

This would be sick on Amazon lol

I’ll stick to my amazing Blu-Rays

Insane deal…But unfortunately doesn’t seem to work with the Series X / S.

It works on my Series X

u/SD_Eragorn avatar

What do you mean?

Edit: holy cow I'd be surprised if it actually didn't.

I’m sure they’ll add the Series X / S at some point.

Still too good a deal to pass up on…Even if watching it on a laptop or desktop it’s well worth it.

u/DGB31988 avatar

It does work on Series X. Just tried it. This collection came out prior to the new Xbox’s and they never updated the descriptions I guess.

Just saw this…Had to open the Movies & TV app and each individual film was in there. What a great deal this was!
