How to Download Movies Using iTunes

Video Transcript

"DREW NOAH: So, now, I'll show you how you can download movies from the iTunes Store. So, just from this little link--all these links right here, I'm just going to click on 'Movies' and you see it's a little bit different style. They put it in black. So, this is the iTunes movies section. You can see down here you got some top movies, top rentals but I'll talk about rentals in a different clip. Some comedy, 'Staff Favorites' and then you can sort it by categories as well and it's got three pages. Now, probably the easiest way to find what you're looking for is just search it, if you know exactly what you're looking for. Otherwise, you can just browse around. So, let me show you a movie. "Ghost World" here. You got some movie notes on the side. You can read the description. You have the option to view a trailer which is really nice and you got 'Customer Reviews' and 'Credits' and 'Plot Summary' over here. This movie is $9.99. I believe new movies are going to be a little bit more expensive. Let's see. This is--yeah. New movies like this "Pirates of the Caribbean" is $15.00; $14.99. So, to buy a movie, you would just simply click 'Buy Movie' and you can see it's asking me "Are you sure you wan to buy this?" And I don't want to buy this right now so I'm going to hit 'Cancel'. If you wanted to just turn this warning box off, you could uncheck this but I would leave--I would leave it so you get this warning message because you don't want to accidentally click on something maybe you don't really want and then have $15.00 charged to your credit card 'cause that's what's happening and if you remember, we signed up with a credit card. This is just getting charged right to it. So, I mean, that's basically it; how you download movies and when you do download a movie, it's going to show up in your movie section right here. I don't actually have any right now. So, one thing I think about before downloading movies from the iTunes store is that it's going to be only available on your computer and on your iPod. You cannot burn movies you buy from the iTunes store onto a DVD so you could play it in a DVD player. It's only going to be available from iTunes and then from iTunes, you can put it on your iPod and I guess if you had someway to hook up your computer to your TV, that's a way you could get it on your TV but other than that, it's going to be only in your iTunes. So, that's something to think about before you buy--you start buying things but that's basically how you buy movies in the iTunes store. So, I mentioned that when you buy a movie or a TV show that it's locked to your computer and I just realized that that's not quite true if you buy an Apple TV which is this product right here. So, keep that in mind. If you're buying from the iTunes store and you don't have Apple TV, you'll only be able to look at it in your iTunes and on your iPod. To view it on your TV, you would need to buy the Apple TV."
