FLIXSTER VIDEO free The Flixster Video Apple/Android app lets you access your UltraViolet library and offers movie ratings and descriptions as well as local cinema times (Flixster's Windows Phone app supports UltraViolet in the US but not Australia). Apart from mobile devices, you can also watch your UltraViolet movies in a web browser on your PC/Mac or download a desktop video app. Unfortunately, there is no support for streaming to Google's Chromecast media player or an Apple TV via AirPlay. JB HIFI NOW VIDEO free The JB HiFi Apple/Android apps provide access to your UltraViolet movie collection but there are no other features. For Australians, there is little to differentiate Flixster and JB HiFi in the eyes of Android users, but Apple fans will favour Flixster, thanks to AirPlay streaming. VERDICT UltraViolet is hamstrung in Australia compared with the US, where you can stream movies to the Chromecast and other home entertainment gear like Smart TVs. Unlike iTunes, you can't download an UltraViolet movie to your computer then copy it to your mobile device – you need to download a separate copy for each device. You can stream UltraViolet movies from the internet or download them to watch offline. UltraViolet movies redeemed via EzyFlix can still be transferred to these apps. Australian online video store EzyFlix was an early supporter of UltraViolet, but with EzyFlix's demise your best options are Flixster Video or JB HiFi NOW Video. Some codes work only with Apple's iTunes, but UltraViolet is a Hollywood standard designed to work with Apple, Android and Windows Phone devices as well as PCs and Macs. When you buy a movie on disc, you don't have a choice when it comes to download codes. Instead with movies we're expected to rely on the free digital download codes bundled with some discs.

Australian copyright law doesn't let us rip copies of movie discs to watch on computers, smartphones and tablets – although we ripped our audio CDs for years before it was legal. You need a special streaming video app to redeem the UltraViolet download codes bundled with some DVDs and Blu-rays.
