Doug, We have only purchased movies through amazon which probably doesn’t help you much. Come to think of it I don’t know that we’ve downloaded any of them though, we usually just stream them through the tv/dvd player, which came with icons/access to amazon, netflix, youtube, etc. I’m guessing you probably know more about what that means than I do.
I would most likely just watch the downloaded video on my laptop. If I wanted dh to watch with me, I’m guessing he would use the hdmi plug to hook the laptop up to our tv? I do have a dvd burner on the computer so I guess I could do that instead but I doubt that I would ever end up actually doing it.
