At that price point, does it make any sense for anybody getting Disney+ for a yearly subscription to buy any of those Disney titles? IMO, I don't think so.

I had the same issue when Criterion's went on sale for $9.99 earlier. Didn't buy a thing...

Not a movie but iTunes has Season Five of The Avengers (Steed & Emma) in HD for $9.99. Unfortunately that's the only season they have. VUDU has several other seasons but last time I checked for viewing only, not for purchase.

The Ten Commandments HD $4.99 at iTunes. (Quick calculation: Movie runs 3:45, that's less than 2 cents a minute!)

"Field of Dreams" 4K/HDR $4.99 at iTunes. I bought it as I really didn't want to buy it again on disc which is currently priced at $21.99 at Amazon and Best Buy.

iTunes currently has The Karate Kid 4K available for $7.99.
I should have mentioned that, but I didn't because I bought it back on Christmas Day for $4.99 so it has upgraded from HD to 4K/Dolby Vision including the Bonus Material with the new featurette "Remembering the Karate Kid" which by the way only runs 10.22.

Robert,

I see iTunes has Sons of Katie Elder on sale for 4.99 - do you have that one and, if so, how does it look?

OK, thanks. Damn, I really wish Paramount would join Movies Anywhere. The only thing keeping me from buying a lot more stuff digitally is the lack of knowledge about how the transfers look. But least with MA, there's a shot one retailer has a better copy than another.

EDIT - that's convenient, I checked JustWatch and see that it's now on Amazon Prime as of two days ago.

I have it on Vudu, but I've read somewhere that iTunes has it windowboxed. The Vudu HD digital looks very good like it's derived from a recent transfer.
Not only is it Windowboxed it’s pan and scan I just found out!

Called iTunes. Refunded. 4 free rentals for my troubles.

Re: JustWatch

Remember if you use Apple, you can get much the same functionality by asking Siri for the movie. It will show you all of the places you can buy/stream something as well as add it to a watch list. It doesn't let you browse sale prices but just making sure you guys knew...
