It is now possible to digitally download Disney, Pixar and Marvel movies.

The Walt Disney Studios has debuted a new app, Disney Movies Anywhere, for the iPhone, iPad, iPod touch and web. iTunes is the digital movie provider for Disney Movies Anywhere.

The release of the app coincides with the digital release of “Frozen” and features Disney’s library of over 400 active digital titles, according to a Disney news release.

“The beauty of this technology is that it enables us to work with iTunes and future provider partners to ensure movie lovers have streamlined access to all of their favorite Disney titles no matter which device they are on,” said Jamie Voris, Chief Technology Officer, The Walt Disney Studios.

According to Walt Disney Studios: “Since 2008, Disney has included codes in select DVD and Blu-ray products redeemable for digital copies of Disney, Pixar, and Marvel films. Users can now redeem these codes through Disney Movies Anywhere, and Digital Copy titles previously redeemed in Disney Movie Rewards or via iTunes will automatically be active in both Disney Movies Anywhere and iTunes once a user logs into Disney Movies Anywhere and connects their iTunes account. Additionally, for the first time, consumers can now earn Disney Movie Rewards points for their digital purchases through Disney Movies Anywhere going forward.”
