Harry Potter collection 4k?

[iGlide]

Harry Potter collection shows as 4k but when selected for purchase I only see the HD edition. Can anyone advise if this is actually viewing as 4k before I purchase the set?

iTunes never shows the 4K option as available for purchase, just HD. Which will then stream in 4K to the Apple TV 4K, if you purchase/redeem directly via iTunes.

So yes, if you buy from iTunes, you get the 4K version(s).

Timely thread, as just five minutes ago I realized that my 8-film collection (from the Wizards Collection, which originally redeemed in SD) has been upgraded to 4k. I thought Apple’s plan was to give free upgrades from HD to 4k where available, but not free upgrades from SD to HD. Perhaps it’s a glitch which will be reversed, but perhaps it’s the beginning of a trend. Fingers crossed...

ADDENDUM: I've deleted the download for Philosopher's Stone from my Mac and am redownloading it; however, it is still downloading as SD. So I guess perhaps I DIDN'T get upgraded and I got caught by the iTunes trap of showing you on an iPad what CAN be available rather than what you actually have. Very misleading. Sorry.

ADDENDUM to the ADDENDUM (?!): I also tried streaming Philosopher's Stone from the iPad and while it doesn't say whether it's streaming at SD or HD it immediately started playing the movie rather than going to a title screen (where you can select to play the film or to watch iTunes Extras). So probably more evidence I still just have the SD copies.

I'll go away now...

Somehow the codes i redeemed from the BDs last year got reverted to HD when they said 4k when the HP were put out on 4k in iTunes....
