Anyone rent a movie on iTunes yet? $2.99 for regulars, and $3.99 for new releases. You have to watch the movie within 30 days of download, and once you start watching it you have it for 24 hours. I just rented Michael Clayton, almost finished downloading...

Seems good if you are traveling/dont want to run to the movie store or order from your cable service/ondemand type thing.

yes, I've rented about 3 so far. I like it only because it's a temporary file on my computer/ipod. Once you hit play you've got 24 hours and once that 24 hours is up, it deletes from your ipod.

i like the feature. There are a lot of complaints by itunes users that you should be able to buy every movie you are able to rent. I figure that'll get fixed once itunes works it out with the movie companies.

It is great for travel!

Its great if you just want to watch a movie and don't want to go to local video store.
