The original Texas Chainsaw Massacre is NOT MA. I didn't realize until I had already pulled the trigger. I didn't want anyone else to get burned.
Yep! As a general rule of thumb, I only purchase 4K movies outside of Apple that are MA compatible. Only purchase and redeem HD movies from/through Apple if possible. Apple is the best place to build your library. Reason being, Apple upgrades your HD movies to 4K if available or if remastered in the future. 4K movies purchased outside of Apple that are MA compatible transfer to Apple in 4K. It's the best way right now to try and build a 4K library.
Gattacca is so good and a glimpse of where our near future might be.

In for Gattaca. We almost became that world last January. And an even more sinister event back in the 40s.

It's a shame so many of the catalogue titles don't have HDR.
Port the 4K titles over to iTunes through MA and you get all the HDR you want.

Oh my bad, if you don't know about MoviesAnywhere (MA), go sign up and link all your digital movie platforms together (Apple, Vudu/Fandango, Amazon, Microsoft, and other providers). Then when you buy a MA title (if the movie shows up on MoviesAnywhere site) from any of your linked digital content providers, they will transfer to all other linked providers. So if you buy a MA compatible movie from Amazon, it will transfer over to Apple, Microsoft, Vudu/Fandango etc.

These are the studios that participate with MA. https://help.moviesanywhere.com/h...s-Anywhere

Will it only play HDR thru iTunes on like Appletv then? Or can I still do it thru movies anywhere app as long as I have iTunes linked?

You can use Apple TV, Vudu , Amazon Prime or MoviesAnywhere apps to playback MA compatible titles. Whatever is linked to MA will be able to see all your MA titles to matter which platform you buy it on.

Total Recall is the same price on vudu. If I bought it I would rather have it on vudu since it's not MA.

Agree, Amazon streaming quality is shite.
Prefer iTunes with my Apple TV myself, but Vudu an excellent optional choice.
