Let's not go there... it is a violation of Forum Rules![]()
So you really get nothing over there? Seems a bit harsh! Is this due to licensing or what then?
How can you keep talking down iTunes rentals as not being HD when you don't even have the service there? I and most others who have actually tried it would have to say iTunes HD rentals are excellent quality. Not Blu Ray but it is certainly as good as or better than almost anything else referred to as "HD". And that includes Satellite TV and cable.
Explain me the endless amount of threads complaining about poor quality iTunes "HD" then. You are right, I don't know how good it really is but I've heard that the quality isn't that great from many, many people.
I think a lot of those threads are from people who believe in much of a difference between 1080p and 720p (which is what iTunes HD is).
I would have to agree with newagemac here, I have bought a couple of movies in HD and have bought the TV series 'Wonders of the solar system' in HD, and think the quality is fantastic. Maybe its not quite BRD 1080p quality, but thats down to perception, and I personally dont see a problem.
I think a lot of people just like to sit and complain in forums...![]()
I actually used to torrent tons of movies and movies. I developed a conscience about it around a year and a half ago and deleted all my illegally obtained content and couldn't be happier. The vast majority of my Apple TV collection consists of rips from my own CD's, BD's, and DVD's. I also use Netflix but I do not rip those films as they do not belong to me. It's funny, I used to tell myself the same lies that some of you posters do to justify torrenting content. The fact of the matter is that it is still theft.

Yup, keep telling yourself that. Here's a handy guide for you, if you can read it in your ivory tower.
So it's cool that if you ever come up with an idea, project, report, paper, invention etc etc that I copy it and take the proceeds, thanks!
I have spent thousand of Euros in DVDs and Bluray films, so I cannot leave such posts uncommented.
In Germany there is no Netflix. There is only iTunes and one or two streaming services, that either require a PC or a special set top box. Movie quality isn't good for the money they demand. There is no way to get the original audio version and I hate listening to Harrison Ford speaking German!
I buy movies I like in Bluray. There are also two renting services that cost around 4 Euro/DVD. I find the price to be very expensive, so I do not use these rental services.

Piracy is theft no matter how it's justified or excused.
All my movies are either in DVD form of things I've bought (and subsequently used handbrake to put into my library) or purchased from iTunes. I don't netflix, redbox, torrent, or blu-ray.
So I can safely guess that you don't really care about FullHD 1080p quality that only a Bluray film can achieve.
