      Amazon has been doing this savings tactic thing since like May of 2020 so you're not actually saving that much but rather maybe $3-4 at most.

      I've been buying 4k discs from them for over 2 years and they seem to put a crazy discount percentage to entice people into buying when in reality, it's not actually that big a discount. That's why you don't see too many people jumping on the Disney titles for like $10 or some other titles for around $12 because they've actually been that price for a while, Amazon just adds like "was $29.96" to get you to buy it.

      It's a smart ploy, but just pointing that out.

      The $4.49 is still good for Trolls but not many people want that for the film, but for the 4k case itself.

      The other titles above Mary Poppins, Dark Phoenix and Trolls are actually priced better.

      Even still, their prices are better than the ones you can get at a retailer (especially if you're a prime member where you save on shipping).

      Just my 2 cents on that savings ploy that Amazon does with discount percentages.

      • Thanks, good to know! Just curious but why would people buy a 4k movie just for the case? (I've never bought a 4k movie before and just pulled the trigger on a few).

        • nfi what he is talking about.
          large rrp which is discounted pretty much all the time is a standard sales tactic
          how can trolls be better priced than trolls ?
          as for the case…
          maybe ppl just want the party mode stuff ?
          maybe the case is made of chocolate and sherbert ?
          $5 buy one and find out

            @rakeem: What I'm talking about is what Amazon have been doing since May of 2020. The RRP is not the RRP Amazon were selling these products for before. Trolls will never go up to 29.96 in the same way that some of the titles listed for $13 won't go up to $30. Amazon have added that RRP to entice people into buying a product which hasn't been that value at all on their site. The highest Trolls has sold on Amazon Australia for is $17 not $29.96 (and that's just for that title alone). I've followed their film prices daily for over 2 years and my point is that the large discount people think they're getting isn't actually the case. So don't think you're getting an 85% saving on Trolls (seeing as that's the film we're talking about) when that isn't the case.

            And to add another example: Captain Marvel is listed at $11 at the moment and they've put the RRP as $53.07, stating that you're saving $42.07. The highest Captain Marvel has ever been on Amazon Australia is $39.98 (back at the start of 2019 shortly after it released). So yeah, that's deceiving to put as an RRP and some will buy into it. Which isn't to say that $11 isn't a good price as it is, but the RRP is misleading.

            At the end of the day, Amazon still prices better than JB and the sorts, their discount system is deceiving though (use Camelx3 and check out some other titles as well).

    I've lost interest in buying movies, both digital and physical. Once I watch a movie, the likelihood of me wanting to watch it again is close to zero, especially since there's always a new movie or tv show thats lined up to watch. Besides a few key sci-fi flicks, I dont buy movies anymore.

      I'm losing interest myself. My argument for getting 4K Blu-ray movies was to get (uncompressed) Dolby Atmos soundtracks which are/were relatively hard to find via streaming. Dolby Vision/HDR was less important for me, and 4K upscaling on a Shield TV got around the 1080P deficit. However, the Dolby Surround upmixer on my AV receiver didn't really do a good enough job to substitute for a proper Dolby Atmos soundtrack.
      Now that I have an Apple TV 4K I've found a lot of the movies in the iTunes store do have Dolby Atmos and cost only $7 to rent (with $2.99 and $0.99 specials), which is less than most of my 4K discs (which I'm also unlikely to watch more than once).
      I've also noticed that at any given time I'm more likely to have Dolby Atmos available on my Apple TV 4K for a particular streamed movie on Disney+ than I am from my Shield TV or Android TV, particularly around peak times. For some reason, Disney downgrades the sound from Atmos to 5.1 for the Shield TV, which I've found very frustrating. I wonder if anyone else has noticed this.

    "For some reason, Disney downgrades the sound from Atmos to 5.1 for the Shield TV, which I've found very frustrating. I wonder if anyone else has noticed this."

    Not just Disney+ ! Google Play TV and Movies are also pretty pathetic with audio for some titles although their titles are supplied by the studios and/or their agencies. (You'd think I would have learnt my lesson with the great UltraViolet rip-off perpetuated by these same studios and now discontinued without very much notice a couple of years back).

    Since digital media is no guarantee of access into perpetuity, optical media 4K/Blu-Ray or DVD are now looking much better, not just better audio, because at least you can resell them or leave as a legacy in your will.

    I have noticed a distinct rise in the resellers' margins who are selling digital media and these discounted optical media prices from Amazon (mostly).

    …. time to go and knock up another shelf… (just kidding).
