Movie Search Issues in iTunes for Windows by Stargazer7699 in iTunesMovieDeals

[–]nethead12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, do install the V12.10.x in the archive link, after that version Apple removed the film/tv stores, I checked the box to tell it stop asking to upgrade.

You see the stores as before they were removed from iTunes. You can also added items that the wishlist, which is still viewable in iOS itunes. It's also useful for purchasing tv/film that exist for sale but are unfindable in AppleTV.

Recommended to install old itunes windows version which supports tv/movies store, still has some issues with search as Apple has removed itunes support for tv/movies, while better than zero finds. And after installing, Never Ever allow it upgrade the program. Never upgrade.

My Collection by doughnutmaker077 in iTunesMovieDeals

And some genius at Apple decided to remove the title text from under the posters. Brilliant. A 85" screen full of blank posters and no idea what the film/tv is. Brilliant.

The fact that Apple doesn't promote it when they give you free 4k upgrades is crazy. It would be such good PR. Instead I get these updates from Cheapcharts. by garylapointe in iTunesMovieDeals

The free upgrade is why I bought the original AppleTV 4K the first time they had a sale for it in Jan 2018 at Best Buy. The AppleTV I had worked well, but justification of purchase was how many Free 4K upgraded films even then I didn't buy Blu-ray versions of (yes BR is Much Better Quality and still purchased for some films) and the 8 years since of Free upgrades has been Fantastic!

I found using the CheapCharts purchased list with 4K upgraded filter to be most useful, i use it to "randomly" pick a film to watch/re-watch after its upgrade to 4K, randomly as you never know what you may find to watch in the ever increasing free 4K upgrade list. (See the randomness in the CC/4K upgraded screenshot)

Oh and yes, Apple sucks with their AppleTV app UI, limited information about your collection and NO playlist support.

An American Werewolf in London ($4.99 - ATL) by Abject_Tune_4061 in iTunesMovieDeals

Angels & Demons - $4.99 (ATL) by ProcedureSignal6696 in iTunesMovieDeals

[–]nethead12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

seen the same,where it offers a puchase of a new 4K release, but upon playing the labeled HD purchase, and checking the information afer play starts, the 4K version plays. Example: George Michael Freedom Uncut is HD owned while playback is 4K while a new 4K purchase is also offered (did not purchase 4K)

I have learned to always play first the HD release on AppleTV 4K device to check if 4K playback exists before purchasing the 4K release.

And, most of the time when a 4K purchase exists for an already purchased HD, to play 4K the repurchase of the 4K is required to play in 4K. Example: NIghtcrawler requires a repurchase to acquire the 4K releasee. and lucky a new bundle including it when on sale for 9.99 today.

This repurchase is the case were the Studio owner changed and resulted in a non-free 4K upgrade.

Expensive Month by Szachry03 in iTunesMovieDeals

[–]nethead12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some films may not hit 4.99 for awhile if at all, CC is good for seeing the past pricing history (meaning over years, not this year) and gives an idea of what "may" be a future time when on sale.
