What titles are highly recommended for apple tv/itunes ? (1 Viewer)

[Sam Posten]

Ok after saying I wouldn't get into digital streaming here I am with a 4K Apple TV! And yes I have purchased content so I have done a 180 and added digital content to add to my movie experience and collection. What classics would anyone who owns an 4K Apple TV suggest? Doesn't need to be in surround but must be a good clean transfer that looks very good on Apple TV.

Into the Spiderverse is one of the best looking and sounding streams.

And on sale for $9.99!

Isn’t the answer the same regardless of format: a good movie is a good movie regardless of whether it’s on your Blu-Ray player or your AppleTV.

Or...I don’t think there are movies specifically mastered for AppleTV that should be exclusively be bought in that format.

I still feel disc is the best quality so for certain titles that I want to own outright and have in my physical library the disc is still my priority. How ever there are still many titles I am going to get for the Apple TV.

I will look into getting that on iTunes but not till next month as my entertainment budget has been wiped out for this month.

I grabbed the Twilight Zone deal, too, along with Cheers.

I think I will look into picking up Twilight Zone on iTunes

I hear you Tino. I have purchase most of my iTunes movies at $9.99 or less and a few at $14.99

I bought that stream last night and plan to watch it probably tomorrow night.

Yeh I just bought Backdraft and Cliffhanger on 4K.
One has DTS X
The other has Atmos.

The digital version don’t.

I used a $10 BB earned credit and $10 from Shopkick so only paid about $22 total.

About the same as what it would have been on iTunes I think.

So do you guys with Apple TV buy almost exclusively through iTunes (except Disney)? Will a 4K title purchased from Vudu carry over to iTunes, if it's a Movies Anywhere title? I guess the reason I'm asking is because I didn't know if it was worth monitoring the 4K prices on Vudu?

 

[Tino]

And now you have them both on iTunes too.

I buy from whoever has the best price, including for Disney. I shop iTunes, Vudu, Amazon, and FandangoNow.

As long as it's MA, it will port to iTunes. You might as well take advantage of the open marketplace.

I do.

And 4K vudu titles port over to iTunes in 4K if available there.

I’ve purchased a few vudu 4K titles for as little as $4.99.

Tino, how do you get a Vudu purchase to show up in iTunes/MA?

 

[TonyD]

I haven’t redeemed them yet but eventually

 

[Tino]

Tino, how do you get a Vudu purchase to show up in iTunes/MA?

If it’s an MA title it will port over automatically.

 

[Tino]

An advantage that vudu has over iTunes is that when you want to purchase a title from vudu, it tells you if it’s an MA title.

Thanks. Guess I screwed up. I just bought Source Code on Vudu for $7, but it's listed as an UltraViolet title and is not showing up in MA or iTunes. God, there are things about this digital copy crap that I really detest!

Doug, which title are you referring to?

Never mind. See above.

Almost everything I had on Vudu and Movies Anywhere where on iTunes. Your most likely better off buying from iTunes. I am now only buying from iTunes. But there is nothing that says I will not buy from Vudu.
