Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
It is my understanding that Apple rolled out a feature around the release of its 4k TV where they would update a movie from HD to 4k if it was purchased through the iTunes store. However, my question is this:
If I purchase a movie now (2021), through the iTunes store, and the highest quality available for purchase currently is HD, if 4k quality becomes available for purchase will Apple automatically update my HD purchase?

Hello Dthr3e,
It sounds like you want to know if you purchase an HD video, will you have access to a higher quality version of it if it is released. We understand how important this is to you and we are here to help.
If you previously bought an HD movie from the Apple TV app, you might have access to the 4K, HDR, Dolby Vision, or Dolby Atmos enhancements on a compatible device. If your purchase doesn't have a high-quality version now, it might be added later.
Your device will play the highest quality version available if this happens.
More information can be found here: Find movies with 4K, HDR, Dolby Vision, or Dolby Atmos in the Apple TV app
Hopefully this helps.
Cheers!
