great to know.
I wouldn’t have known this. So these are never updated in iTunes??
Nope! But if we could get people to believe us, this thread wouldn't exist

... This is from the last Warner Archive email I received on 4/28:
...with 47 classics from Warner Archive available on iTunes for $4.99 each! ... ready to download at the touch of a button, but all of them available in 1080p HD! ...
Since they are being sold under the Warner Archive banner,...
... but just remember it has to be a movie title that was originally released on Blu-ray by Warner Archive Collection. It can't have a prior Blu-ray release from Warner Home Video or Warner Bros. Home Entertainment.
...but since no other HD master was available for those titles ...(Innocent Blood), naturally the HD version added to iTunes had to be the latest master....
Not really, obviously, somebody at iTunes jumped the gun by about three months when the 4K disc comes out. The same thing happened with "The Wizard of Oz". I kind of expected this to happen once I read Bill Hunt's reporting that the release date is in September. It's very unfortunate, but, it happened before and it's going to happen again.Tuesday-Thursday THE GOONIES was on iTunes in 4K and Dolby Vision. Today, Friday its back to being in HD. Very weird.
I don't remember that!I remember a few ago CASABLANCA was listed 4K.....but disappeared days later.
Alright fellas - I scored one for HTF
As you know Warner Archives has a great podcast talking about their new releases every week. At the end of the podcast they read listener e-mails, so about a month ago I thought what the heck and sent them in the question we have been talking about in this thread.
And today the read and answered it!
Fire up the episode "Dazzling Doris and Debra" and go to the 39:45 mark...

so.....
Maybe?
Why would platforms not want to upgrade a print? Warner would charge them for the upgrade?
