    Either way, can you tell us what the full prices are for those movies with HDX for $13.99 and UHD for $24.99? (What are the prices when you're logged out of your account, like in a different browser or a private/incognito browsing window?)
    When I am signed in, lets say for Black Mass the UHD price is $29.99, $5.00 more than $24.99 for an upgrade.

    Not for not I am waiting for a while to "buy" into a UHD TV. The Smart UHD TV that I want is hideously expensive, I think that over time the prices on UHD TV's will become more manageable over all. So I will not need to upgrade for a while from HDX to UHD. This whole UHD "thing" is in its infancy, time will allow it to season, prices to reduce on the media & TV's, and for the format to mature and settle into consistency across all outlets, i.e. streaming & discs and the related devices.

      Never thought of this...... Yup, The Craft SD to HDX is $13.99 and the regular price is $13.99. Same for Anchorman.
      Probably because I used D2D for them. So, there is no real reduced upgrade price.

      I don't regularly buy SD copies of anything on VUDU, so I don't know if there would be a reduced SD to HDX price that way.

      As far as the UHD, the regular price for the ones I checked are all $29.99 and ones that can be upgraded are $24.99.

      And with only 27 UHD titles, if you have other than a 4K Vizio TV you're not really missing too much.

        Ah, so $5 off a UHD upgrade, but nothing for HDX. Oh well, I wouldn't pay it, but it's a start! Actually, if I have half a reason, I might try paying for it a few times just to encourage them to expand this kind of upgrade path.

          It's already gone up by 2 to 29 UHD titles.

          1 UHD
          713 HDX
          1 HD
          2 SD

            To clear things up, VUDU currently does not have 'upgrade pricing' for any quality except for Disc to Digital conversion. The VUDU UHD $24.99 or $29.99 pricing is decided by the studio and they periodically review/revise.

              Hi Jeffrey, I sent Jake from engineering a private message as follows but never heard back, maybe you know?

              Hi Jake, do you know when the Samsung 4K blu-ray player will be able to play 4k movies? As for now we're only getting to play up to HDX quality. Thanks

              1 UHD
              714 HDX
              1 HD
              2 SD
