It doesn't look like it includes digital. Can anyone confirm?

I would add this is what you get with a GREAT reference transfer and truly see how good HDR CAN be when do correctly!

You want to show off your OLED display, this is the disc you grab IMO!

No digital on this set. None of the 4K nature shows come with digital.

It probably uses less energy to make a disc than it would for your PC to download 200GB or whatever an uncompressed 4K series is

Thanks for that link. I've got a pile of amazingly well-done nature docus now – so many to watch on a big HDR screen, and I'm looking forward to them.
I put this one on my CCC list at 14 bucks. I expect it'll be about a year before it'll drop to that slicker price, if past is prelude. By that time I may have actually set up my 7.2 system with a Panasonic 4k player and worked through my backlog :-)

Don't have enough fingers & toes to recount the times I've watched this as I just love his voice & demeanor. His brother, Richard, was quite a talent as well. Repped.

Actually torrenting is not very earth friendly either as it relies on an ad hoc network of nonspecialized equipment to be constantly running in order for a file to be available and shared. A direct download from a dedicated server would be much more green.

When you get your 7.2 set up properly you will really notice the difference between Blu Ray and 4K sound.

I did a little test comparing LOTR on 4K and on Blu Ray. I had LOTR in UHD running on my LG 4K player and set up the Blu Ray in my Xbox 1S and set both at almost exactly the same time in the movie.

Switching sources back and forth on my receiver I discovered greater separation and there were detail sounds on the 4K that simply were no there on the Blu Ray.

I started buying these with my no rush credits. Too bad Amazon never offers me credits anymore.
