Canadian Digital Movie Deals

I have well over 150 titles in there and you have to move them over 1 by 1. Even worse, TV series you have to do per episode! Not to mention how many I'm losing completely because they're not available on Google.

I migrated over 150+ the past few days.
Only one of my movies didn't make the cut.
For TV shows, it was very weird. Some episodes in certain seasons didn't make it but some did. Ex: Rick and Morty season 3. I got all except 1 episode. GoT season 2 had several missing episodes.

Seems inconsistent - I wasn't missing any episodes from GoT Season 2, but several from seasons 4 and 5 of Breaking Bad. I also had about two dozen unavailable movies, but they were all either alreday migrated because I had set up Movies Anywhere in the U.S., or the were Lionsgate titles I had entered through Vudu, so I wasn't expecting them to migrate anyway.

EDIT: Oh god, what a mess ... so I'm still checking things, and I noticed something truly aggravating. I was able to migrate all 10 episodes of GoT Season1, but when I checked it in Google, 5 were missing. But I dug deeper, and here's what I have: 5 episodes are listed under Season 1, 4 are listed under the "Seasons 1-7" package, and 1 episode is listed under the "Seasons 1-6" package.

What a bungle.

Did mine today at lunch, I think I got lucky, the early GoTs were a pain as well as True Bloods but everything else seemed to transfer easily enough. I even regained a couple of titles I lost a couple years ago (things that went play store exclusive I guess Arrival, Fences etc). I'm sure the process will get easier as they work out the bugs but I'm happy I did it early.

My bad. Had to double check. The GoT season 2 stuff that didn't go through was the special features. Same as the special features of Season 4.

But, Rick and Morty, all episodes of season 3 except one of them. Weird.

Adventure Time. Seasons 3,4,5 did not go through but a few episodes of season 1 did,

Just did mine looks like I lost the matrix sequels. Not available google play. Also looks like they are all sd? I was buying a lot of 4k but the digital copies are a mess all over the place so i stopped. Now I just buy iTunes when they go on sale. batman box set 4k 14.99 hard to beat that.

I think everything is HD or 4k, just Google Play playback starts low and hen kicks in the HD or 4k soon after. I can only confirm this with 2001 as I got an indication from my TV that it was in HDR. Since HDR spec is tied to 4k, I’d assume what I was watching was 4k.

But yeah, no labelling anywhere on the GP store makes me realize what lack of care Google has with its storefronts.

Had the same problem. Many of the episodes are under the Complete Series group and the others under Season 2.
