    Alien (1979) listed as 4K in iTunes?

    So I have a question. I was browsing the $9.99 in 4K HDR: Visual Stunners deal section in iTunes and it shows Alien in that category. However, when I go to the actual movie's page, it just shows that it's HD. I know Alien is getting released on 4K BluRay in the UK next month, but does that mean...

    Entered Apple ID password wrong *once*, locked out until Jan. 6. WTF apple?

    What kind of garbage is this? This is how they treat their customers? do they have to fax a request to another department and hand carry it to get stamped or something? this is pathetic for an online service they should be ashamed. Really regret getting in the Apple ecosystem
