Amazaon VS. Flixster




The bigger box office battle in my book

The latest backlash against Amazon has come in the wake of Flixster’s surprising message that says it’s app—along with the hundreds of movies that many viewers have paid for and downloaded through the service—will no longer be supported on Amazon’s Fire TV and Kindle Fire. You can make sure your loved one is safe by learning how to track someones texts.
 
One devoted customer got this message when they tried to find out what was going on with his collection:

“Thanks for contacting us, and sorry for the technical difficulties!

Unfortunately, Flixster is no longer supported on Fire TV or Kindle. However, you can still play your movies and TV shows on a variety of other devices, including PC/Mac, Roku, and iOS and Android devices. For more information, please visit our apps page here.

Alternatively, you can check with other UltraViolet™ retailers to see if they support your Fire TV / Kindle. For information about other retailers, please go here.”

This infuriating message has been received and scorned by thousands of users all over—many of whom have invested hundreds of dollars in purchases and upgrades to digital versions of their movies. Have you ever wondered can someone track your text messages?

One loyal Amazon fan, who goes by the name Goat6500, wrote on the site’s customer review section:

“Terrible. I have 100+ ultraviolet movies and today amazon took away the only way to watch them with the Fire Stick(I have 4 of them). Was on the phone with customer support for half an hour as the argued they 'never supported Ultraviolet' which is not true because I've been using Flixster for over a year with my 4 Amazon Fire sticks. Then the CSR offered to give me a $20 credit to buy the movie Ultraviolet(2006). I'm not kidding and no, Ultraviolet is not one of my movies. It took me years to finally accept the idea of buying a 'digital movies' because of the fear of it being simply taken away or unsupported. We'll that's exactly what Amazon did.
