Digital Release FAQs

How accurate are these digital release dates?

Our digital release dates are sourced directly from streaming platforms and distributors, typically accurate within 1-2 days. Dates occasionally shift due to last-minute distributor changes.

When do movies typically release on digital platforms?

Most films become available on digital platforms 45-90 days after theatrical release, with major studio releases averaging 70 days. Streaming exclusives may have different patterns.

Do movies release on all platforms simultaneously?

Not always. Movies often appear on purchase platforms (Apple TV, Amazon) before rental options, and exclusive streaming deals may limit availability to specific services.
