Updated with information about system requirements for iTunes Movie Rentals. Jobs said that Apple is “dying” to get this feature to an international audience, with that release due “later this year.” The new service is being offered as a free update for iTunes users in the United States beginning today. Jobs said that users with modern Internet connections will be able to begin watching rentals within 30 seconds of initiating the rental download. Once you begin watching, you have 24 hours to watch the film as many times as you want. High-definition rentals are full 720p films with a Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack.Īccording to Jobs, after downloading a movie rental you have up to 30 days to start watching the movie. Apple VP Greg Joswiak described standard-definition Apple TV movie rentals as “DVD quality,” while non-Apple TV rentals are downloaded in a “near-DVD quality” format compatible with Macs, PCs, iPods, and iPhones. Movies downloaded directly via Apple TV, in contrast, will only be playable on Apple TV.
