Movies Anywhere is nice, but Apple is still throwing their anti-consumer bullshit around, i.e. you can't play 4K iTunes movies in 4K on anything but an Apple TV, they get limited to 1080p. Edit: And Apple is misleading consumers I would say, since when you buy 4K movies via iTunes, they don't make it obvious in the slightest that you need an Apple TV for 4K. Edit 2: I just looked and it looks like they do state you need an Apple TV 4k now but I don't think they always did, and I have no doubt a lot of people like me bought movies off iTunes thinking they were getting a 4K experience since the Apple TV disclaimer is almost just that.
- test6554 7y agoThis is why I never purchased any digital media from Apple. Amazon has DRM-free mp3s, so I purchase a couple of my favorite songs from them each year, and I can load them onto my iPhone without much fuss. But I don't buy digital copies of movies, because it's a waste of money as things stand today. But maybe I'm just not one of those so called "experiences over ownership" millennials.
- InTheArena 7y agoYour information is badly out of date. Apple has had drm free for quite a while, and actually forced he issue with labels(which ironically opened the door to their competitors)
