    I downloaded and installed blink box on my wifes Hudl tablet so I could buy her a few movies to watch.

    I signed up with a new account and deposited £1 and got the free £5 credit as advertised. I also have 75% off the first 5 purchases we make.

    So I now have 3 films bought for the princelly sum of £1.25 but the problem is it seems you can only stream and not actually download the films which is useless here as our download speed isn't suitable for streaming.

    Is it not possible to download purchases made on blinkbox?

    I have flixter on my tablet and I was able to download the digital copy of the latest bourne film and watch it.

    Downloads are not on android only streaming, hopefully the feature comes, you can download Blinkbox purchases on PC though.

    Darn :( but as I read you can't transfer them over to the tablet once downloaded :(

    Yeh I looked at that page earlier but couldn't see anything that actually mentioned downloading the films that had been purchased.

    It does state that a Wi-Fi connection is required when watching a film. It is very ambiguous though..!
