I use this often and when you click on the titles, it will tell you which service has this price currently. I try and get them on iTunes because of the free future upgrade possibility. This is a nice way to check sales across different platforms.

Schindler's List is well worth it if you haven't seen it in a while. Amazing film, and looks great in 4K.

To Kill a Mockingbird is not 4K, only HDX.

Alright alright alright. Say man, you got a milkshake?

Uh, not on me, Smalls.

It'd be a lot cooler if you did, this is bat country.

A little off topic but The Sandlot is not real 4K. There is no official 4K release for the movie. I'm not sure how they are able to peddle movies on these digital platform as 4K when they don't exist as physical releases. Unbelievable that these platforms continue to do this with certain movies.

Midnight Run and Slapshot. Two classics that stood out for me (that weren't listed above).

Ummm, whut? There are tons of 4K movies available only digitally with some eventually getting physical releases as well. I just the Beverly Hills Cop trilogy and all are 4K Dolby Vision, but only the first movie merited a disc release, too. Drawing a blank ATM, but I've had several digital 4K releases months ahead of a disc edition being put out.

It's simple economics: It costs X dollars to make a 4K master of a catalog title which can then be sold at a premium price via streaming services forever for that one-time investment, but making a physical release requires spending the money manufacturing and distributing discs which may not recoup the investment. How many nostalgic Gen Xers will insta-buy The Sandlot for $5 as opposed to pass over a $20+ disc release? There are still a frightening number of Luddites who never moved to Blu-ray from DVD.

Kudos for not being the usual "it's FAKE 4K, upscaled from a 2K master" guy, though.

There's a 4K database website which labels movies as "fake 4K" and "real 4K'. Sorry, but The Sandlot is not real 4K according to them. Usually the biggest tell that a movie isn't a real 4K reproduction is it not being available on a physical release. Are their exceptions to that rule? I'm sure there are but if you look at Amazon comments on non-physical released 4K digital content on Amazon you usually see people complain about how terrible the "4K" looks. Coincidence? I think not.
