My first iTunes movie rental

Ok, I broke down and did it.

I rented the Simpsons movie from iTunes and it actually worked out really well!

The process was really slick.

I rented the movie in iTunes and it downloaded in the background. I had it on my computer for a couple of days before transferring it to my iPhone (just a click of a button in iTunes).

Both iTunes on my Mac, and the iPhone, showed me a display of how many days I had left to watch it.

You can keep the movie for 30 days, but once you start watching it you have 24 hours to watch it (as often as you like).

I watched some of it on my iPhone, then transferred it back to the computer and watched some there, then back to the phone to watch the rest.

At the end of the 24 hour period I got a message on the phone that it expired and the movie deleted itself.

The whole process was really easy and pleasant. The only complaint I have is that I wish the rental period was longer than 24 hours, but I guess it’s better than nothing. :)

Oh, on a side note… the movie was OK. Not great, no horrible, but it was good enough that I got a few chuckles. :)
