Fantastic - thanks! I agree that it would be fabulous if everyone followed suit but it could be bad for itunes - I just found Boardwalk Empire in Bluray with the digital copies for about the same price as itunes!

I was able to download a HD copy of The Dark Knigh, while before it had only given me the SD copy. I used the redemption code from the Blu-ray
If True Blood and Game of Thrones are HD, anyone know about Boardwalk Empire? (i.e is this something HBO is doing with all their TV shows?)
Dobbs2, the set I saw was advertising a digital copy as well (it looked like this http://www.walmart.com/ip/21098890) - do you mean this would be an older SD digital copy or did I see one of the newer releases earlier than scheduled?
(I was going to buy tomorrow but thinking maybe I should wait)

so since they all don't give you the HD version, does it say on the package if you get the SD or HD on it?

I tried this when I read your note but it didn't work. My download is definitely higher bitrate than the SD copy I had before, plus it downloaded the iTunes extras that I didn't have before. However, the movie is still SD. And yes, I definitely have HD downloads turned on.
Mine was from the iTunes digital copy that came with the original release.
About The Game of Thrones? Yesterday I went to Best Buy to give that a look, and I didn't see anything on the packaging that said "Digital Copy" on it. It just said Dolby Digital True HD or something like that. I even checked the back and it didn't say anything either.
Can someone confirm the bit rate of the 1080p HD downloads from iTunes for these movies/shows? I'm really curious to know if it is 640k like AC3 on a BD or if it is lower. Thanks!
See attached for the iTunes description of the downloaded file. Looks like the download is 720p, but you can stream at 1080p via the Apple TV.
Battleship is......
...., standard def.
You would hope your getting blu ray digital download if you buy blu ray but it's 720P. Better of not buying the full pack and ripping it yourself. Just downloaded battleship (pretty good movie) and its 720P. Don't think any digital download I have done came in at 1080P.
