The Avengers streaming

Post by rob2bob »

I have previously had the Studiocanal blu-rays for seasons 4, 5 and 6. I now see they are all available for streaming on eg Apple TV for £14.99 a season. It says they are HD, so I took the plunge at that price!

I think the image looks even better than the blu-ray but welcome anyone else that has tried them out to comment.

You can play the Imprint blu-ray sets perfectly fine on US players, fwiw. They are region free. They’ll cost you a pretty penny, but they’re impressive packages.

Just an update.

I have been spinning (lol) my StudioCanal Blu rays and using the versions now streaming in HD from Apple TV. Definitely for me the streaming versions are sharper. Surely they haven’t been remastered again for streaming? I am very impressed. My only annoyance is the order of the episodes does not reflect any transmission or production order… so same as the Blu rays in that regard.

True... But at £14.99 a season in the UK it is a snip given what I have spent over the years from VHS onwards!
