I picked up a couple of movies for $7.99 including Alfred Hitchcocks Psycho and also Lawrence of Arabia. The latter is in 4K and Dolby Vision,and is only available on 4K Disc via a special Columbia Pictures set. It looks fantastic and is a great example of older movies done right in the 4K Format. Great pricing too.

Thomas Edison and George Westinghouse -- the greatest inventors of the industrial age -- engage in a battle of technology and ideas that will determine whose electrical system will power the new century. Backed by J.P. Morgan, Edison dazzles the world by lighting Manhattan. But Westinghouse, aided by Nikola Tesla, sees fatal flaws in Edison's direct current design. Westinghouse and Tesla bet everything on risky and dangerous alternating current.

I bought The Bridge on the River Kwai for $4.99. It is advertised as having Dolby Vision/Dolby Atmos on board, but when I played it, I got DV but no Atmos. 

 

I rang customer support, and they weren't aware of the problem. I said that I would have been happy with the movie if it hadn't advertised as having Atmos on board. The two people that I spoke to were very helpful, and I was given a full refund of $4.99 🤑

 

They are going to contact the distributor to see if they can get things sorted. They will then LMK by email if/when the audio is fixed, so that I can re-purchase.

 

Who said Apple were just money grabbers 😂

Been loving the under $5 war stories. Have grabbed a few. Even The Dam Busters is in 4K and looks great. The problem with the under $5 sales is that i go crazy with my credit card lol.
