- kalleboo 11y agoAnd don't forget that despite paying more, you get less, since on iTunes it doesn't come with any of the extras on the Blu-ray.
- enraged_camel 11y agoThis is incorrect. For most movies there's an iTunes Extra section that comes with the movie when you buy it.
- kalleboo 11y agoMaybe in the U.S. Not here. Nothing I've bought has extras. Looking at some current top movies (including Disney ones), no extras. edit: after checking 10 movies in the top current movies, finally found one with extras (released by Fox). so it exists, but nowhere near "most"
- enraged_camel 11y agoI disagree. iTunes offers a massive amount of convenience that bluray doesn't offer. When you buy something on iTunes, you can start consuming it almost immediately. Versus a bluray, which you have to either wait to receive, or go to the store in person to buy. This "on-demand" nature of iTunes is enough of a value-add to justify the increased price, at least in my eyes.
- rhino369 11y agoWhy? It's more convenient. I can have the iTunes movie playing in 10 seconds instead of going to the store or waiting for shipping.
