Where to buy DRM free movies?

Hi.  I want to legally purchase movies on the internet, download them onto my computer, then drag-and-drop them into iTunes to play on (stream to) my Apple TV.  I need the movies to be DRM free so that I can add subtitles to the movies.  Does anyone know where to purchase movies legally on the internet that are DRM free and that are in a format (MPEG-4) that iTunes recognizes?  Thx

I know of no legal place where you can purchase feature films without DRM. The movie studios don't want their movies out in an unprotected form. The only exception I know of are Warner Brothers' "Archive Collection" which appear to be downloadable without DRM, but those are all old and/or obscure content (1920s through the 1940s, mostly).
Regards.

  • I  would like to convert former purchases to DRM free. Where did the tab on the right side of iTunes Store go. What's it labeled? Can I still do these upgrades?

  • WHO KNOWS WHERE TO DOWNLOAD FREE MOVIES FOR DROID X???

    If you guys could help me out, I would appreciate it thanks guys : )

    I'm going to try and answer this without violating any TOS rules, here.   One of the most common video files supported by Droid X is the MPEG-4 file....also seen in a filename as ".mp4"    Movies are commonly in this format. 
    The internet is overflowing with countless websites that contain MPEG-4 files.  If you can download an MPEG-4 file to your home computer, then you can transfer it to your phone via the USB cable  (or one of the more clever apps I've seen out there).   If you find something to download, make sure the file type matches what types your phone supports.   I didn't see AVI in list of supported video types, so downloading an AVI file  (another common type) may be pointless.
    Many people like to transfer files to each other using a program called {edit for TOS violation}.   Use at your own risk though.  Some people love to put viruses in their files just to infect the unlucky computer that downloads it.   
    I will not post specific websites where free movies are available, as Verizon may see this as a violation.  Just perform an internet search on "free movies"......and be VERY careful which sites you go to.

  • How do I know if the album is DRM free?

    How do I know if the album is DRM free?
    I want to buy http://itunes.apple.com/au/album/house-of-beni/id464729917.

    I have two Apple accounts. One that I created to purchase my iTunes music from (before Mobile Me) and my Mobile Me account.
    I no longer wish to maintain two accounts.
    This is not only limited to my iTunes Music, but Find My Mac, My iPhone, My iPad...
    It is getting to be difficult to manage all this and I want it all consolidated into one (my .me) account.
    So my question is Can I move my library to another account. Not should I, but CAN I?
    If it is truly DRM free, I don't see any reason why not.
    Sidenote...
    I do not wish to move the music to another machine. I will still use it on the same Mac it's already on now.
    And if I can't delete an account, that's ok. I will simply stop using it.

  • Can I find a free movie site in Safari and airplay it to Apple TV?.

    I am thinking of buying a Apple TV, but wwas wondering if it is possible to use a free movie site from Safari and airplay or mirror it to Apple TV?. I have a original ipad and a iPad mini. I am also buying a iPhone 5s.

    The original iPad does not have mirroring capability, the mini and 5S would.
    Keep in mind that the iPad mini won't fill the screen when mirrored as it's display is 4:3, whereas the iPhone 5S has the same aspect ratio as your HDTV (16:9)
    If using basic airplay on any of the IOS devices, the website would need to be enabled.

  • Apple doesn't seem DRM-free to me

    For many years I used to buy music from a robust Moscow site (mp3sparks), where songs were way cheaper than iTunes.  I wasn't drawn by cost savings but because the music was DRM-free.  I wasn't thrilled with doing this given U.S. trade representative's complaints on behalf of the U.S. music industry. Then I heard things you buy on iTunes today are DRM free.  Safe and legal, supporting my beloved Apple and being fair to artists, I was all for it, and I changed my evil ways.  Now, two songs from one album I bought from iTunes last week (March 2013, well into DRM-free iTunes) I'm having trouble playing from a Mac in a different room, and it makes me wonder if I was misled by all the PR about Apple being DRM free.  Why is it asking me to authorize to another computer if it is DRM free?  And I'm stuck in the won't-authorize loop (see http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1389) where after a Get-Info track check on which account purchased it, I log in correctly but it says "this computer is already authorized" and yet still won't play them.
    So thinking it must be a technical error, I'll see if I can't re-download them from iTunes direct onto this second computer but from my Apple ID.  I get an alert popping up, "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID.  If you download past purchases with your Apple ID, you cannot auto-download past purchases with a different Apple ID for 90 days."
    Really?  This is Apple's idea of ending DRM protection?  Oh Moscow, I think I faintly hear your siren song.  OK, so a serious question here… looking for a philosophical answer, not a technical one.  A household with two users with different laptop iTunes purchasers, but one server computer powering the hi-fi and network-served library. What's Apple rationale in maintaining all this authorization stuff, what that's that 90-day popup alert trying to protect Apple from in a DRM-free world?
    (As I'm writing this, in came a message as long as this one from Katie, Senior iTunes Store Customer Support, and I'll try her solutions for the technical side.  I gotta give Katie and Apple kudos for fast response.)

    Update
    I'm still not thrilled with the proprietary hooks, but I did get more helpful insight from iTunes support.  I will never know why two cuts on an album wouldn't behave properly for a 2-user-family situation with several computers and two Apple IDs, but it may have been the universe reacting to my wife's unpleasant music tastes ("The Music of SMASH").  Nevertheless I have left the situation with a slightly better understanding of my situation from helpful Katie in Apple support, this business with the 90-day lockout.
    Bottom line:  think of it as two different things, authorization versus association.  Or more specifically, iTunes song authorization versus computer association with your Apple ID.
    Key concept:  Association is required to use certain iCloud features such as automatic downloads, re-downloading songs, and iTunes Match.  I was deep into iTunes Match when I first recognized the no-play problem and got stuck inside a reauthorization loop.  And part of my solution to straightening out my SMASH cuts <wince> was re-downloading, apparently thrusting me hip deep into the Association policy.
    I admit I don't completely grasp practical application of all implications of this, but here's a restatement of the 90-day lockout policy as it was explained to me:  Each device or computer can only be associated to one Apple ID at a time, and association can be changed once without causing any problems. HOWEVER, once association is initially switched you will be unable to change the device association for 90 days. The device can be removed from your associated device list, but the 90 day restriction remains (there may be extenuating circumstances warranting an exception).
    You can get more info on your situation from your iTunes..
        1.    Store > Sign In from the iTunes menu.
        2.    Choose Store > View My (AppleID) Account
        3.    From the Account Information screen, click the Manage Devices line
    Next to each device or computer name, you will be able to see when each was associated to your Apple ID. You will also be able to track how many days are remaining before your associated devices.  More info: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4627
    Hope that helps the next guy trying to re-download a malfunctioning iTune and exasperated with this 90-day lockout threat.

  • How do I find/upgrade to DRM free Music from EMI

    I just read that EMI and Apple have agree to sell DRM free music at a higher quality for $1.29. iTune purchased songs from EMI can also be upgraded to DRM free tracks at $0.30 each. The problem is where do I find them? I can't seem to find search EMI Records on iTune. Is there an easy and fast way to upgrade all my tracks from EMI?

    According to the original announcement the new downloads are scheduled for release sometime this month. If everything goes according to plan I would expect they should be available from the iTunes Stores in the next few weeks: Apple Unveils Higher Quality DRM-Free Music on the iTunes Store

    What video format (including embedded audio) is able to be viewed and heard by both OSX Lion users and Windows users?
    You have to make a distinction between the container format (eg, AVI, MKV) and the video/audio format (eg, DIVX). For instance, without additional software, QuickTime can play .avi files with the IndeoVideo codec, but not .avi file with the DivX codec). Further, you have to make the distinction between what can be played using an independent player, eg, QuickTime Player, and what can be played within the presentation software (Keynote or PowerPoint).
    You can refer to
    <http://mac2.microsoft.com/help/office/14/da-dk/powerpoint/item/7acce321-36fb-48d 6-8c76-12cb3a0063ee>
    for suggestions. In practice, for presentation clips, I think you're limited to MPEG-2 and MPEG-4. I don't know if an additional MPEG-2 QuickTime component is required under Lion, you'll have to check that yourself. So, in the end, it's MPEG-4. Both Keynote and PowerPoint Win/Mac should be able to handle it.
    can anyone suggest a safe application that I can purchase from the apple app store that will allow me to convert video files
    What's a 'safe application'? And why do you have to buy it from the App Store (yuck!)?
    Handbrake, as mentioned by X423424X, is free and works very well. There are probably others, too.
    this forum is the best place to learn
    Perhaps, but it may not be the place to get answers to this question. Try a PowerPoint Mac user forum, they would have more experience in these x-platform issues. This forum is oriented more towards the hardware side of the MBP platform.

  • Where can I find free iBooks Author templates?

    Where can I find free iBooks Author templates? I'm trying to create a storybook for kids, is there a listing of such?
    Thanks!

    When I used the link  and clicked on Free there was nothing showing except  the loading  spinner ....which never ended. Reloaded and  tried the Photography link which was OK...
    Just tried today and the site is fully functional dont know if it was my machine or what!
    I did not try anything free, I get wary of new sites being  advertised in targetted forums and such and wanting email address's.
    I make my own template, $20 for one template seems expensive to me there are apps in the store offering templates far less expensive,  as do Jumsoft and I have no connection with them other buying  their set when iBA first came out.
    "Templates for iBooks Author" is a free app offerring 10 templates free! their  next version offers 20 I think for $10
    I think my  next project  should be a website offering templates a $3 each ! So far I have created 150.... 
    Edit:   Anybosy   wanting to learn more about creating or modifying template should  really check out KT's  tips and information on this link given above and repeated here...

  • Charged for free movie

    Verizon sent me an email saying I could view a movie free.  I couldn't access the movie and called Verizon tech support.  The agent told me to pick "buy the movie" and then I could view it and I shouldn't be charged for it because it was a free offer.  I just discovered that I was charged $21.99 for the "free" movie.  How can I get the charge removed?

    Hi Sarazan,
    I cannot speak to the specific language used in the offer you were given, or the advice you received from the Verizon representative. But the only "free" movie offers I've seen from Verizon were free rental offers, not free purchase. A RENTAL (either SD or HD) last up to 48 hours after the initial viewing. A PURCHASE lasts as long as you can access the service (potentially forever). If you had rented the movie, you would have been shown the rental price and had to agree to it. Then Verizon would have credited your monthly bill for the rental price. If your movie did not show a rental price, it is because it was only available for PURCHASE, and therefore ineligible for the free offer.
    It sucks to learn things the hard way, I know. You're not the first person that has been hit with the full purchase price for not understanding the difference. If you are lucky, you may be able to find a customer service agent that can help you remove the purchase from your account. But unfortunately it is up to them to decide what to do.

  • Can't put DRM-free epub into books on ipad

    According to what I've read, I should be able to drag-n-drop or use File - Add File to Library to copy a DRM-free epub into the ipad's books library.
    It isn't working.
    I created the epub using calibri and it passed the 1.0.5 test, but when I drag-n-drop, I get a red circle with a line through it. When I use add-to-library, the books appear in the iTunes books library, but not in the iPad's Books library.
    Can anyone help?

    According to what I've read, I should be able to drag-n-drop or use File - Add File to Library to copy a DRM-free epub into the ipad's books library. It isn't working.
    Try dragging and dropping (or Adding) the the ePUB file to the "iBooks" area of iTunes Library first. Then "sync" the iPad with iTunes, select the iPad device in the Library List, set your specific "Books" sync option ("All books" or "Selected books") for the iPad device, select the specific book for syncing if using the "Selected books" mode, and apply the changes to your iPad to move a copy of the book to your iPad.

  • I want to download a previous movie purchased but when I go onto the tab to download, all I see are songs, tv, etc.  Where do I find the movies I bought?

    I want to download a previous movie purchased but when I go to the tab, I see tv, music, etc.  Where do I find my movies that I bought?

    You don't.
    You buy one and only one download of movies. It is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
    Sorry.

  • Convert Purchased DRM-Protected Songs to DRM-Free Versions

    Convert Purchased DRM-Protected Songs to DRM-Free Versions
    as per iTunes / Help / Usage rights for iTunes Store purchases:
    "All songs offered by the iTunes Store now come without DRM protection. These DRM-free songs, called iTunes Plus, have no usage restrictions and feature high-quality 256 kbps AAC encoding.
    If you have older iTunes Store purchases that are now available as iTunes Plus downloads, you may upgrade your existing purchases. To do so, visit the iTunes Store and follow the onscreen instructions."
    Looking at iTunes / Store / Purchased, which shows the list of songs that I have purchased, I do not see how I can tell if my older songs are with or without DRM protection.
    How do I identify what songs have DRM protection? I want to convert any purchased music, which have DRM protection, to newer DRM-free versions.
    Thank you.

    Yank,
    The upgrade program described in that document was discontinued  by Apple a few months ago.  Here are the options now:
    If you have a lot of tracks to upgrade, you can do it by subscribing to iTunes Match and following the instructions by which to delete your DRM copy and download the non-DRM matched copy.  See the section "Can I upgrade my previously purchased music to iTunes Plus?" in this guide: iTunes Store: iTunes Plus Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
    If you only have a few to upgrade, you can buy them singly.
    How do I identify what songs have DRM protection?
    In your library, use Songs view, and look at the "Kind" column for ones with the word "Protected." 
    If you do not see Kind, enable it by going to View > View Options.
