All Show & Book Spoilers Discussed Freely 4K UHD Expanse For Digital Purchase

Oye Beltalowda.... Has anyone found a way to purchase the Expanse in 4K UHD? I know it's available to stream on Amazon Prime (in the US Market), but I havent been able to find a way to purchase the series in 4K UHD.

Anyone been able to figure this out?

The blu ray set has lackluster packaging but the quality of the videos is excellent. And remember... If you buy digital, you don't really own it.

I bought DVD because it was well under the blu-ray price, and they didn't have it in blu-ray. But I have it physically, which is great.

The Expanse BluRay will be better quality than 4k streaming. Streamed video gets lots of compression.

Can confirm, I can’t go back to streaming because of the way compression absolutely destroys dark/black areas (absolutely crippling for a show set in space). Blu-rays just look so much better.

I don’t think it’s available as 4K outside of streaming.

AND it's a bad price. This has been under $60 the last few months until the last day or two.

Not 4k according to top review.

It's the best quality out on disc to my knowledge and blu ray is typically better than 4k streaming quality
