Can someone confirm iTunes is HD some people are saying the bundle is showing up as a SD bundle

Someone on that thread mentioned it is SD only.
I can't remember when a deal went from awesome to one of the worst in such a short period of time.

I still wonder, iTunes should always give you the highest version available.

I only see an option to purchase it in SD on the left side of the iTunes listing. All of the movies state they're in HD on the right side in iTunes. I wouldn't buy it. They don't upgrade SD at all.

Edit: Looks like Apple fixed it and added the second option for HD/4K on the left-hand side.

Reminder that you aren't "purchasing" these movies. You're "purchasing" a revocable license that can be taken away at anytime. You will own nothing and like it.
Always important to keep in mind, decided to hold onto my DVDs and Blu-rays even after dumping a whole lot of money "buying" digital versions in hopes of minimizing physical "stuff." Physical media also has better picture and audio, and can be lent or resold in the real world.

Personal calculations on this bundle leads me to pass. Most of the movies I want from here I already "own" in one form or another, the remainders aren't worth $100 to me. Maybe at $50 I'd pull the trigger just for variety. If I was just starting out "buying" digital, then this bundle would be a no-brainer. (Bearing in mind that it's really a "lease" with an unknown end date).

Thanks. Rep +

what is the 101 movie?
Wish VUDU/Fandango at Home would list each movie separately from these bundles on your account
without having to make a special list.

And for iTunes, would be nice to see which movies you already own when looking at these bundles like
Vudu does for you.

1100 + movies and I own none of these on my VUDU/Fandango account.
If you add the bundle to a list it will show up with each individual movie instead of the bundle. So, if you have several bundles in your library you could just make a list with all of them and every single movie/season would show up.

Great deal, only had 2, just hate that it will only show under one icon on Vudu.

While I agree on thr points, for me digital is better because

1, No risk of damages
2, Doesn't have space to hold 100s of physical media as I have 900+ movies in my itunes collection.

Risk of digital license being revoked and that copy being lost forever.

Certain shows never get a physical release and then taken down from streaming (HBO/MAX)

Remember buying from Vudu gives you zero 4k upgrade rights.
With iTunes, if it gets upgraded to 4k, you get it.
True but I've gotten several free 4k upgrades from Vudu. They just send me emails once in awhile and day I got some upgrades

$100 for 100 movies isn't very greedy...

Not really worth $100. A lot of movies I've never heard of and won't ever watch. Maybe less than 10 I don't have already and would watch.

A fish called Wanda

Those are the only 3 I'd recommend to a friend personally probably ~15 good watchable and maybe another 10 that are good but it's like homework . . . .

Expected more. Just happy I got to choose this time because I'm always late to the party.
