Both reviews on Amazon.com are 1 x star with comments on the lack of Blu-ray or 4k. More the merrier all so lets see if our 1 x star reviews can get some attention and the high quality release this deserves,

My post a page back covers this - the digital release (where's the Blu-ray!) is 1920*816 so while you may think it is 720 it is closer to 1080 because it is in a quite extreme widescreen (2:35:1 ratio) very like the wider aspect films you tend to see. So, 1920 wide by 816 high as opposed to the normal 1920x1080 with the difference made up of black screen! Still no substitute for a Blu-ray or 4k UHD release (I wish!). Some of my posts seem to awaiting moderator approval but I suggest making a point via Amazon reviews if you feel strongly - hopefully someone will take notice. I got fobbed off with standard reply from the record company.

Yep I give full details a few posts back about the aspect ratio and sound plus more

Same here, review up on Amazon saying the same thing and suggest more of us do this - lower ratings means less sales so perhaps someone will take notice.

As there is no Blu-ray I had to buy this from iTunes. Very disappointed in it as it looks as if very little care and attention was made to the release as there is no multi-channel surround sound, just plain Stereo. The image is a (very) widescreen 1920*816 so film-like 2.35:1 and the file size is 4.2Gb so basically more compressed than DVD! There are chapters for each song What a shame, while this looks fine for iTunes it is not a patch on how good this would have looked and sounded for Blu-ray or 4k UHD

Good news that it is in HD at least on iTunes but still a poor substitute for a Blu-ray release which would offer lossless surround sound plus much higher bit rate for the visuals. The fact there is no HD (or 4k UHD) release is astounding given that you would expect the band and management company would like product released in the best possible formats. For what it's worth I have written to the record company and the Coldplay store to ask if a future release is likely. The more pressure we put on for this the more chance there is of a rethink (I hope!)
