Can anyone confirm this? I am curious about of streaming to Atv is HD or SD.
Odd, I have iTunes digital copies of several films, but the only two that show up ad Up and Sherlock Holmes..

On Apple TV: Album art grid only for purchased movies. The computer movies are still in list view.
That sucks. What is the point of putting the art into our movies if we can't use it with Apple TV?
Do you need to have iTunes Match for this to work?

I purchased 4 movies. Scott Pilgrim, and the three Back to the Future movies (all Universal). None show up in my Purchased section.
I wonder if this is a Universal thing. They've been pulling some dirty, dirty tricks with their movies.
Two movies I've seen recently; Hanna and Brides Maids, had full menus for extras, including deleted scenes, outtakes, behind the scenes, etc...
But none of the extras worked. Trying to load any of them would just tell you to purchase another copy of the movie, an "enhanced" copy that actually had the extras. My jaw dropped. Someone could actually buy a movie and get teased with options they couldn't enjoy - like DLC for movies.
This is a great feature but i think the problem is that it doesnt account for Itunes digital copies redeemed years ago..
I've bought several bluray's with digital itunes copies... for example SLUMDOGG MILLIONAIRE... but it doesnt show up under PURCHASED... maybe that is something that is working now, but im doubtful that it keeps track of itunes digital copies from 2/+ years ago
even itunes support wouldnt acknowledge any re-downloads of itunes digital copies in the past.. so maybe this is a new policy in itunes

Shame that the UK have been left out on the Movies side of things, got everything else just cant download old Movies :-(
I don't understand why this is news. Digital copies are the exact same as purchases, and as far as I know, iTunes doesn't mark them differently at all. You just paid for one with a gift code coupon versus your credit card. If the movie is available in iTunes, and you ever downloaded it, it will show up for redownload.

There was a time that when you purchased something from iTunes, you got to download it once.
Apple basically said it was up to you to back it up, because if you deleted it and wanted to download it again, you had to pay again.
It changed when then the App Store came out, as you could download the same apps multiple times... Eventually Music and TV became available to download again as well. My "Purchased" section suddenly filled up with a bunch of songs I haven't listened to in years.
It is news that Movies are showing up, because (like the other stuff), they were NOT available to download again. At least, not on any friendly "Purchased" screen.
I guess I have to avoid Universal and Fox movies, but for other studios, they WILL be getting more money from me. I have a Blu-ray player, and would love to get more Digital movies tied to my account!!!
