Hi there,

I recently lost my entire iTunes collection via an untimely computer death, and had not backed up my most recent purchases. I can live with this, but am still curious as to how iTunes works in this respect - i.e., if i purchase a movie, is there any way that i can actually keep a hard copy of it? And if i lost my movie (due to a faulty computer) would i have to actually purchase it again on my new machine, or does iTunes remember that I actually paid for it once before?
I did try to google these questions but nothing quite fitting a decent response came up.

Would love some info about this.
Thanks:)
