Apple Launching iTunes Movie Offerings in Over a Dozen New Countries

[sths-gr]

They are good markets for Apple to sell movie, because nobody in those countries work so have lot of time for watching movie. And rest of Europe can pay for their itunes bill. Haha.

You should know that the vast majority of people work very hard...and for those that don't, is not entirely their own fault..

As for the claim that the rest of Europe pays our bills, you're probably referring to the bills that capitalism made.

since my last atv 2 purchase, a few months ago I'm able to see movies with english subtitles, not being english native its a good help to understand all the bits.

my us iTunes account + iTunes gift card from ebay, has being great in past 3 years, i spend more than $1000 renting movies, because of the hd quality and 5.1 surround sound.

europe is waiting for a long time time for this update, bring it on......

I can confirm: no movies on the Romanian iTunes store. Thanks to all my fellow citizens who use pirated movies...: mad: I guess that's why we don't have iCloud for iTunes either...

NO, the problem is with licensing the movies. Every country is different in that aspect.

The sad part is the quantity of movie. It's been improving, but compared to the US Store, the movie content is a joke.

And, at least in my country, they keep the original language (english), but they made the horrible mistake of hard-coding the subtitles, so I'm not able to remove them.

Subtitles?

I miss subtitles. Say You want to see a Spanish or French movie or Your swedish speaking children want to se an American movie. Do anyone know when or if the films will get subtitles in smaller languages like swedish, as they are in DVD?

Wow, I should move to Estonia, they get it in English there.

I seem to be stuck with German here in Switzerland.

We actually have four movie stores; German, French, Italian and English, just look for them in the drop down menu on top.

This is a thing I don't understand.

Why they don't put the movies or tv shows with multiple tracks and subtitles?

The problem is that adding each sound and subtitle track would make the files too big, however, they should offer them as combined data so you can stream/download each movie with your preferred language track or subtitle. And if you want another track, just switch the sound channel when you stream or tell iTunes to delete the current track and download another.

The store still needs a lot of work.

I am really happy that we finally got the iTunes Movie Store in Denmark last month, but it is beyond ridiculous that some titles are only available in HD on iOS devices... HD is far more important on a computer screen than on an iPhone.

In Portugal we can find movies when searching but we haven't a tab yet on Mac iTunes. In iOS it already appears on the tab.

Sorry for the bad english,

It is there now. I got an email from Apple saying that movies were available in the iTunes Store and, yes, there they are! I hope now they will start offering the Apple TV for sale here in Portugal, too...

Who on Earth would pay 10 euros for a movie, when you can buy a DVD at amazon for 3 euros or 9 seasons of TV show for the price of 2 seasons at iTunes Store ... Prices are ridiculous ... they should match citizens salaries and in store prices ...

This business model will hardly workable in Asian countries like China and Thailand where piracy still roam free. (or really cheap price)
