Nice! I love seeing extras get added. It looks like Oppenheimer added them as well. Pretty sure it didn't have them before.

I really wish they would have them quicker though for new releases. I buy the disc or iTunes if K doesn't have the extras.
 
Retribution (2023) in HD from Lionsgate updated to Dolby TrueHD Atmos from DTS-HD Master 5.1
 
Mad Max: Fury Road HDR updated. Original download 16th september

Changes in this update:
Added audio track: English (PCM Stereo)

I just happened to look at this update again today - previously I am pretty sure all it referenced was a 2 channel audio track or something like that which I didn't bother to update. Today - I noticed that it included some additional HDR changes PLUS the extras which arrived in SD.

So does this mean now that all extras will become available with just the HDR download?

I only downloaded the HDR version of this movie which I bought a while back now (I think as a D2D offer) but today I was offered the extras supplement. That comes in SD quality by the looks of it and so I said yes to the HDR/supplement updates. All good news.

I noticed now that the HDR AND DVD Quality versions show in my 'direct www page Movie list'. Not been in to actually look at it yet - but assume that's referencing the supplement rather than it having downloaded the movie in DVD format? I have checked back in the download section and I didn't ever download the DVD version of the movie at any point.

It will be great if we are offered all of the extras as a simple addition to our HDR or UHD versions without having to download the whole lower quality movie to see them.
 
The Ten Commandments (1956) in UHD with DTS-HD Master 5.1 from Paramount added (Previously HDR & HD only)
 
Sadly, no upgrade offer has been made for existing owners of Stop Making Sense.
I had the disc version, purchased the HD download, and I do have a small discount to upgrade (20.09).

Then again, I had The Incredible Hulk HDR, and had no upgrade discount. I re-categorized by blu-ray disc and got a slight discount to the new version (21.67).

Not sure I understand any of it.

Strange. I own it in Blu-ray quality, through a direct purchase from the store and received no upgrade offer. It looks like a near full price offer that you received.

It looks like these updates basically catch the K offering up to the discs from last June. I find this mildly hopeful that they'll catch up the Avatar: Collector's Edition to the discs from December at some point (3 HDR Cuts).
