On the new AppleTV app, all you need to do is scroll down on a movie page to buy it.
Also, the left menu pane has a “Store” section where nothing you choose shows a streamjng platform first. And every movie I see there says if it’s 4K or not.

One option is you use CheapCharts, the apps quite good in that you can filter all 4K movies as well as the recently upgraded to 4K movies.
On top of that if you’re using the app you’ll receive a notification upon any price drops.
I’m confused on what you mean by that disappearing, unless you’re just talking about the iTunes Movies app going away? All of that data is still available on the Apple TV app. When it says Play, it refers to streaming service first (unless purchased), but I believe the data regarding resolution and Dolby Vision/Atmos availability is always referring to what is available for you to purchase.
The movies app is going away according to Apple.
Not according to Apple, according to rumors.
Rumour or not the fact is the iTunes Movies and iTunes TV Shows apps are being discontinued.
CheapCharts were informed a little over 12 months ago.
Doesn’t always determine the available quality to purchase, take Coraline and American Psycho in the UK, they’re both 4KDV upon purchase but no quality information at all due to being available on other services that don’t offer anything other than HD.
We could also take that to another extreme with this example of Star Trek Strange New Worlds which shows as being 4KDV, yet neither iTunes/atv or Paramount+ in the UK even offer 4K at this current time.
There is no possible way they are going to just not show the resolution anywhere. That makes no sense at all.
You’re really worrying about something that will very unlikely happen.
I would agree, but this is the 2020’s as well as Apple.
what does the current decade and the company that makes the product have to do with OP's unrealistic assumption that Apple would make such a rediculous oversight. No one ever made or said anything related to what OP is assuming, except for OP.
I'm using the latest public beta of tvOS, and the Library section of the newly-redesiged TV app specifically has a "4K HDR" section.
Not good enough. I want to know the resolution when I click on the movie anywhere in the store and I specifically don't want to be forced to be redirected to Disney+ or other services as first option.
You’re getting downvoted but you’re right. This sub is really bought in on the fanboy train unfortunately.
