How is this real?! EVERY HARRY POTTER FOR $10?!?!?!?! EVERY LORD OF THE RINGS FOR $10?!?!?!?
I had to put on my glasses to make sure I was reading that right, then I double checked that it was in HD. Best $20 I’ll spend all year.
IKR!! I bought the Harry Potter Bundle 2 months ago for $59.99!
Is it a US only sale? No sale in canadian store.
You get free health care so it is even.
Beat me to it.
Are these a ‘purchase’ per se, or are they rentals? Are they DRM-protected? Or, can I copy the data files to my PC to watch (or iPad for on the road)?
they are purchases, not rentals. You can watch on iTunes for Mac/Windows or any iOS device.
Thanks for that feedback. I reckon then, they are files wrapped in .mp4, .m4v, .mov, or similar. So long as that is the case, and the DRM is not attached, it seems to be a bargain.
It is DRM-protected. But you can download the files to view within iTunes and/or download to an iPad.
This sale seems not to be available in Europe.
I’m in Europe (with US account) and it is working OK :P
can anyone confirm if these movies are in the cloud or not?
Any knowledge on how long this sale is on for?
I suspect they made a mistake on Harry Potter: I just tried to buy the bundle, and got an error message more or less saying “Cannot buy this right now — This product is being modified — Try again later”.
Apple just went and upped all of the prices…
I followed the link provided and they’re still full price on the US iTunes Store that I see. Maybe it was an error and they’ve since corrected it?
Hold on… All 8 Harry Potter films for $10? NO WAY! Is it real!?
I can’t buy it :(
It says
Purchase of this item is not currently available.
This item is being modified. Please try again later.
Anyone has this?
They just bumped Harry Potter to 59.99. The 9.99 must have been a mistake
The Harry Potter collection shows “Purchase of this item is not currently available” “This item is being modified. Please try again later”
This is weird because iTunes on iPhone says that Harry Potter Complete Collection is actually $59.99. This is getting interesting…
It seems be a glitch. I could not purchase the $9.99 Harry Potter bundle from my Mac and when I checked from my iPhone the price for the same bundle was $59.99.
Looks like there might have been some sort of glitch – the old prices are back. No more Harry Potter & LOTR for $9.99
Both Harry potter and lord of the rings not available for download. item being corrected… did anyone get a chance to download them before apple stopped it?
I purchased LOTR for $9.99 and the movies show up in the cloud… didn’t download them though and none of them play when I click them on my AppleTV or iTunes.
Its 59.99 now not 9.99 :(
I bought Harry Potter for $9.99 at 6 am central. Now it is $59.99. I am thinking it was a price mistake.
Yep, I’m having the same problem as everyone one else. Was this a glitch or a two-hour sale?
It’s back to 9.99 but getting the old editing error
Nevermind, back to 59.99
Do we get to keep the movies? Yes, or? I bought LOTR and Harry Potter for 9,99$ and they’re still in my account?
Seems it’s over. Someone lost their job on this deal.
Thanks for the heads up! Potter and LOTR for $18 bucks! Good Tuesday! (Yes I bought early)
Thank you so much for this heads-up today! I saved at least a couple hundred dollars! Although what I saved on movies I’ll probably be making up with a new, bigger hard drive!
iTunes however has this really weird way of doing things to download the videos. If you check for purchases, you won’t see them. Go into the iTunes Store, click on the link for “iTunes in the Cloud”, and then you’ll see your purchases and can download them. Works same on OS X & iOS (and should on Windows as well).
