I joined since I've been buying most my Blu-ray movies, perhaps eventually I'll get something free. Story here Sony Blu-ray Club


A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing.

 Quote:
consumers will create a user profile on BD-Live--accessible via their network-connected Blu-ray player--or via the internet at http://www.sonyrewards.com/bluray . Club members earn points by registering their Sony Blu-ray High-Def movies when connected to BD-Live. Once the title is registered, the user´s Sony Rewards account balance will be automatically credited.


Wow, sounds like that will work great for netflix!

just looked at it... You get 100 points for each live enabled bnluray you watch.. you can buy bluray movies from the store with your poitns,and the prices range from 2800 points to 3800 points.... take a while to earn that many but hey, why not something free?

Hmm... registering your movie. Sort of like registering software which requires a valid serial number?

I think all you have to do to 'register' is to sign in to a BD live movie and it adds the points to your account... not sure though.

I guess that means you can't get points unless a movie supports BD-Live?

Perhaps I am a little too cynical, but I bet there is a registration database and serial numbers behind this. This is Sony we are talking about.
