Apologies if this question has already been addressed in this forum, but can you expect iTunes to have the best master/transfer/restoration of a film? The obvious answer is "it depends", but how can you tell the difference other than the new 4k tags?

Example. Today, The Apartment is on sale for $4.99. If it's the Arrow transfer, I may be interested in buying an upgrade, but if it isn't, I have the blu-ray already. Then there are older films like His Girl Friday or Lady Eve. Is the former going to be the same as the Criterion restoration and will the latter be upgraded once there's a restoration of that film?
