I found the answer to some of my questions via this link
»superman.mediadownloads.walmart.···/faq.jsp

What is the Portable format?
The Portable format is optimized for on-the-go viewing using "PlayForSure" portable video players. If played on a PC, the image quality will not be as good as the higher resolution Standard format. These videos are not compatible with Apple iPods. Portable format videos are encoded at a 320 x 240 resolution with an average bit rate of 500 kbps.

Can I transfer a downloaded movie to a different PC?
Yes, but you need to activate the new PC and de-activate your previous PC. Simply call our Customer Service Representatives for help. They are available at 1-888-227-8458 (6 a.m. to 9 p.m. (PT), 7 days a week).
They have locked themsleves out of the main portable market? why isn't the IPOD supported, daft decision.

Royal PITA to do anything other than have it on one PC, I'll stick to ripping it via DVD shrink to a backup copy or using a x264 or Xvid codec to get it smaller
I agree. This won't play on my Cowon A2 either. I doubt it'll play on anything.

The only reason to use a propriatery format that is inferior is to control your content. I don't want to pay $5 so they can control the content I paid $15 for once already.
