@ironcross - do you receive notification of the addition of UHD titles as "movie updates" in the normal way. I have yet to receive a notification of the addition of a resolution addition through the usual channels. I only see them through these threads? Just curious

I'm guessing they're not sent out for UHD added. The notifications are for when a better quality is added, and one that would require a new download, so if you already have HDR, UHD is not considered a higher quality version. If Atmos is added, you'll get a notification because it's considered better than the other versions and it requires a new download.

If a title that's only been HD is added in UHD and/or HDR, it's more likely you'll get a Digital Offer notification, but if it were added and included in your previous purchase, you'd get a notification for that.

That's my understanding anyway.
  • Movie Updates are offers for higher quality versions than what you have + included in your existing purchase.
  • Digital Offers are a paid upgrade.
  • Lesser versions are not notified.
 
I didn't get a notification for this and when I go to the page is says I have already downloaded this movie but I have downloaded the HDR version only. Has the UHD version only been released in the US? Just interested TBH - I am quite happy with the HDR version.

Not normally, but for some reason it did on this title. I already had the HDR copy downloaded and the UHD appeared in my updates.
