Being bought by Fandango, and then wanting more brand recognition probably had something to do with it.

Vudu is a better name, but Fandango is a more recognizable name. I get it.

Still, they should just market Vudu more. Fandango at Home is a stupid name thought of by corporates. At least, it's not Fandango+ or whatever... which I'm sure was on their list.
