UHD upgrade question

    UHD upgrade question

    I'm sure this has been discussed somewhere in this forum, but I don't know where. So, I have this question: When iTunes automatically upgrades an MA movie from HD to UHD, will it also upgrade it on Vudu if UHD is available? This question arose when my movie Lone Survivor, MA-enabled, was upgraded on iTunes because I originally purchased it there, but it has not upgraded on Vudu. I did re-link Vudu with MA, but I haven't done that with iTunes.

    Also, when I look at my MA transactions, I don't see "iTunes 4K" for Lone Survivor anywhere. I only see the original "iTunes HD" for Lone Survivor.

    So, this is not looking good for upgrades on Vudu.

    It will be good to know what others have seen with this.

    From my understanding, when iTunes upgrades a purchase, they don't register it as a new transaction with Movies Anywhere, so MA continues (and any connected accounts) to recognize the resolution of the initial purchase not the upgrade since MA doesn't know it happened.

      Yes, it sure looks that way. Thanks for commenting.

        My understanding is that they are not upgrading your purchase from HD to UHD. All they are doing is allowing you watch UHD quality on your AppleTV when you own HD, if available.

          Sounds like an upgrade to me. Right now on Vudu, my HD purchases don't allow me to watch it in 4K on Vudu. Plus, if I redeem a HD code on iTunes, it gives the 4K license and transfers to MA. Also, when a new 4K transfer is released on iTunes, the HD transfer gets a new encode as well.

            It's great that Apple upgrades an HD movie on their site. No complaints there! But it is disappointing that it doesn't transfer to MA if initially it's purchased in HD and later is upgraded to UHD at iTunes.

              I don't see why all don't just upgrade.

                It's Apple. They want you locked into their ecosystem. So they give you 4K on their 4K AppleTV device and no other. I don't see why anyone is surprised.

                  The reason they all do not go about giving away free upgrades is because giving away upgrades is bad for business. People seem to forget that this is a company who is about making a profit, unlike Apple who gives away free upgrades because they're desperate. If you want access to 4K you really should expect to pay the price.

                    Apple is desperate?
