iTunes Rentals Don’t Work (Yet); Is It Just Me?

Tue 15 Jan 2008 @ 2130   

Okay, I’ve downloaded the newest version of iTunes twice now (7.6), fresh off the news of the availability of the new iTunes movie rentals, but still nothing. I’ve yet to come across a movie that is rentable, despite checking most of those Steve mentioned (and even rented!) in his keynote this morning. Is it just me?

Let me ask you this: If it is not just me, and movie rentals aren’t available yet, despite nothing on Apple’s site or in the keynote to the contrary, then how in the hell does Apple come up with this Top Rentals list?

Apple’s got something funky going on, methinks. Either this list is made up of totally random movies (which isn’t likely given it hasn’t changed at all), it’s a template field remaining from the store redesign, or Apple is purposely promoting some really strange movies by making iTunes users think they’re what’s hot now. How these movies can get so hot without even being rentable is beyond me.








There is no commenting. Sorry. Luckily, you have all those fancy buttons up top to choose from! How exciting!
