You left out the most important detail that they were VUDU Instawatch codes.

Do I get actual disk? Or do I play through Microsoft?

These are digital. You can play through MS, or if you link a Movies Anywhere account you should be able to stream from any other streaming site you also linked to MA.

You'll only be able to stream them. No physical copies with these type of deals.

There digital worse quality no atmos compressed video and audio and you lease aka rent digital licenses you do not own. Physical includes digital most times. Physical sales are common and during black friday so many disc with digital will be 5. These are 5 dollar type bf sale type stuff. I prefer disc atmos is amazing i love uncompressed audio and video. Example 80gb uncompressed 4k movie is compressed to 10 to 20gb around they toss atmos to make even smaller. People get upset cause they are sensetive on anything they buy but facts are facts but these days less is better and pro consumer is bad. Physical is leaps beyond better if you want way better get disc. Want compressed non atmos not owning digital cause you to tired or blank to put a disc in go digital. Many people have digital vanish but censor deleting posts on reddit and other places are ways companies fool so many. Want digital fine but fight so we get digital right! Who am i kidding blanks took over there easiest marks ever where company spun lies are fake facts turned true facts cause so many think true. Why the c still a hoax to most.

I didnt read the whole post, but from the start...I still buy digital, but buyer beware. Long story short, I bought codes thinking they were legit. Like 7 months later 21 movies are still in my vudu account as purchased but can no longer be played. Im out the money. Credit card wouldn't cover it. 🤢 🤮

I wouldn't call it "leaps beyond better"

You need to watch the video below. Yes is disc better absolutely but it's certainly not as big of a gap you're making it out to be.

I watched like 3 minutes of that video and he said 1 nonsensical thing and expects 1 horrible thing. The horrible thing is he expect us to be able to eyeball a comparison of 4k digital and 4k disc from a YouTube video. Wtf?

Well his video is in 4K HDR if you watch it on a capable device/TV. Pretty much the conclusion is yes disc is better but not a lot, audio is where you probably lose the most.

Well as much as I would agree with you I would point out he was using an entry level player also.

You have to understand that video is only half of what a movie involves.

He eluded to the other half(AQ) and on that end it is a significant drop off.
Much depends on your equipment on how significant but it's much more than the PQ nonetheless.
