MA Tracking and Comparison

These very useful tools from Will G and Brent S will track what you own at Movies Anywhere and compare your library to show what you are missing, what has been upgraded, what is new, etc.

You first need to install the Vudu Catalog tool in Chrome/Edge (Android option: https://www.makeuseof.com/chrome-extensions-android-mobile/ )

For this comparison you will need to turn purchase dates off on the Vudu Catalog Extension. Go to chrome://extensions/?options=bnlpiockcfehbfbdcegahemgmjfkdopc and unclick include purchase dates

Next go to https://moviesanywhere.com/my-movies while signed in and run the extension (click it). If you have a large library and this is your first time running it, it may take awhile.

Save the CSV file somewhere you can find it on your computer. Make sure you save with the date. You will run this monthly or whenever you want and save them separately. When you have two or more reports to compare you can move onto the next step.

Next click on this link https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LogUwlgMQwEyqr9H0djik3e8SUjTc9j1JY0eRLTD_18/copy#gid=130627987 it will open up a copy of the compare file. This is yours to edit
