I I had to wait for it to finish downloading I thought I could stream it while downloading?

You can. Just contact iTunes support next time via "Report a Problem" You will get credited back (be sure to describe as accurately as possible your error and situation) the money for the Rental. Then retry to rent it again.

This has happened to me on two occasions and nothing of a big deal.
 
I bought my rMBP, 2.6 GHz Quad, 16 Gb RAM, 512 Gb SSD before Christmas, and was very happy with it.

(For the layman, that's an Apple Mac Book Pro, with a display made from real retinas, 2.6 litre, 4 wheel drive, with 16 Gazillion Bytes of Radio Active Memory, and 512 Gazillion Bytes of Sheet Steel Disks.

I read the Image Retention threads, and was doing well until last night, when I gave in and tested my Mac.

I checked the manufacturer of the retinas, and it was LG. I checked for dead pixels, and found none. Then I turned the brightness up to maximum, and did the Image Retention test....

After 10 minutes, the chequerboard image switched over to a grey screen, and there it was! Image Retention! Oh my god, what am I going to do!!!?

At the same moment as I cried out in anguish, my friend looked at my screen and was puzzled.

He confirmed that my beautiful Retina display was absolutely fine, and had no image retention.

I was confused, until I looked away, and then I understood...

MY EYES HAVE IMAGE RETENTION!!!!!!

Help me, please!!! Can I get new eyes from The Apple Store? Should I take them back right away!? I don't know what to do!
