While there's not an app for game consoles, as long as your Xbox or PlayStation can open YouTube, you can get to your rentals and purchases in the YouTube app. You can stream Google Play on your iPhone, iPad, Android, PC, Roku, many smart televisions or through Chromecast. Google Play does offer a $0.99 rental to new customers, so it is worth checking out if just to save a couple of bucks on a movie night. Google Play offers some titles in UHD, but these titles aren't marked in the store, so it can be difficult to know if any particular movie is available in UHD until you go to buy it. Google's philosophy is more about providing the opportunity to watch on the largest range of devices rather than battling it out for platform dominance. It's easy to trust Vudu's neutrality in the war over our digital video lockbox because they don't have a device they are trying to push. Google's Android, Chrome and Chromecast platforms don't exactly make them Switzerland, but they've played nice in the war for our living rooms. While this list isn't to be interpreted as best-to-worst, Google Play gets the second mention based mainly on the ability to stream their offerings on a wider range of devices than Amazon Video or Apple's iTunes movies and television. There's not a dedicated app for game consoles. This was a great way to build your online collection while still buying DVDs and Blu-ray discs. Vudu supports UltraViolet, which was a digital locker that gives you access to digital copies of DVD and Blu-ray titles. You still must use their respective apps, but it's a nice benefit. Most video providers are now offering offline downloads for mobile, but Vudu and Apple offer the same service for desktop and laptop PCs. One nice benefit of Vudu is the ability to download the movie to your PC.

Some movies are also available in Ultra HD (UHD). Vudu offers movies in SD, HD and their own HDX format, which is a slightly superior rendition of HD. And while Vudu isn't a household brand, Wal-Mart certainly is. You also don't have those worries with Vudu. You don't want to buy some movies and have the company shut down in two years, and with Amazon, Google and Apple, you don't have those worries. But who are they? One primary thing you need from your digital movie provider is trust. Vudu popped up in 2007, so they've been around for a while. We'll start with the one that you may not have heard about before reading this. Not as well known as Amazon, Apple, and Google. The interface isn't quite as smooth as the competition.
