So I bought a few movies on Blu-Ray that came with Movies Anywhere codes. When I load them up in my iTunes/TV library, they only show up as HD; but if I check the store page they'll have 4K, even Dolby Vision or Dolby Atmos. Is there a way to upgrade them aside from buying a bundle that includes that movie, or am I just out of luck?

If these are from HD Blu-ray discs, then the HD version is what you will get with these codes. The HD-4K “upgrade”/equivalence only counts for purchases directly from the iTunes Store.

Plan B. Buy a LG UBK-80 or 90 4K UHD Blu-ray player and connect to your 4K TV. The LG device will upscale lower resolution movies to 4K. Walmart often has these devices on sale.
Hey there! It's a bit frustrating when your Blu-Ray movies only show up as HD, even when the store page promises 4K, Dolby Vision, or Dolby Atmos.Here's the scoop:
Sometimes, it takes a bit of time for Movies Anywhere to update your library with the higher quality versions. So, be patient and check back later.
Unfortunately, upgrading specific titles outside of bundled deals can be tricky. Studios and services have different policies, and it's often on them to provide these upgrades.
Keep an eye out for promotions or sales on Movies Anywhere. They occasionally offer discounted or free 4K upgrades.
Finally, if you're keen on 4K and are willing to explore, Pika Show is a third-party app that might help, but be cautious and research its legality and security thoroughly before diving in.

Got it, thanks! Guess I'll keep an eye out for those bundles (and be sure to get the 4K Blu-rays)
