Say, via the iTunes-compatible Movies Anywhere platform. It seems that some are down to Apple ’s original policy of offering free HD to 4K upgrades of films no longer applying to titles bought in HD outside of iTunes. This doesn ’t seem to explain all of the 4K to HD switches, though. And it seems that the return of this issue may still be responsible for some of the “lost” 4K movies Apple TV 4K users are seeing now. At that point Apple suggested that there was some sort of labeling issue (where films said they were HD on their header page, but played as 4K) that they managed to (largely) fix. This started happening in 2017, just after the Apple TV 4K launched, as reported here. I’m also starting to receive reports today of the recent return of another major issue with iTunes movies: the downgrading of 4K HDR films to HD. The Canadian user suffering this issue was pointed to this page of Apple legalese in the response where he was told that he wasn’t entitled to compensation for his lost purchases.
