Video downloaded on iPad mysteriously appears on iTunes

[Cdmays]

Hi all,

The day before yesterday I downloaded an iTunes TV show on my iPad while I was on vacation.

This morning, I was playing with my iPad after turning on iTunes on my PC. The tv show I downloaded on my iPad was on my iTunes! Importantly, I I did not sync my iPad and my iTunes!

I do not know how I accomplished this or how I can replicate it. But it's awesome! Does anyone know how this happened?

Edit: Could this be related to my Remote app or some Home Sharing feature I inadvertently activated?

I was able to replicate this. Here's what I did.

1. On iPad, download TV show.
2. In iTunes, from the menu, Store > Check for available downloads.

iTunes then starts downloading the show I just downloaded to my iPad.
