If you look at the Twilight - Breaking Dawn movie (in iTunes App) on a new iPad, it clearly states '1080p HD'. It doesn't mention resolution when looking at the same page on an iPhone. iTunes Store when accessed from my iMac shows the movie as '720p HD'.
There are two locations in iTunes preferences where you can select video resolution, one on the Playback tab, and one on the Store tab. Both of these were already set at 1080p. Even so, I specifically purchased & downloaded the movie ON my iPad because that was were it was shown as being 1080p. I would have thought, even after syncing the movie back to my iMac, that iTunes would show (in Get Info) that the movie was High Definition (1080p) regardless of the value of those settings.

Unfortunately, for us Australians, there is no purchased list for movies. We can re-download TV Shows, Apps, Books & Music, but not movies. So if they've sold me a 720p movie, when iTunes showed it was a 1080p version, then I'll apply for a refund. The movie is AU$30 over here (US$31), and I'm not happy paying that for a non-1080p movie. I'm not happy paying that for a 1080p movie either.. but you get that :^)
I've been browsing more HD content on my new iPad & AppleTV, and there are many movies showing as available in 1080p, yet via my iMac.. the same movies are showing as 720p, even though my preferences have been updated to 1080p. Another movie I bought last week (on the 14/3) is showing as 1080p on the iPad, but iTunes Store, and iTunes Get Info on the downloaded movie, are showing that as 720p too.
Maybe this is an Australian thing? Maybe 1080p is only available on rentals in Australia, and not on purchases yet? Although if that were the case, they wouldn't be showing movies that are for sale as 1080p on the iPad 3.
I'm guessing, but it would appear that HD movies in Australia (via iTunes), can only be BOUGHT at 720p. But they can be rented (via iPad/AppleTV) at 1080p. I'm not quite sure why you can't rent at 1080p on an iMac, that doesn't really make any sense, but then nor do the content licensing rules here in Australia. The crux of the issue is that iTunes, on the iPad, insinuates you're getting a 1080p version if you buy it on that device, and Apple are exposing themselves to claims of false advertising, because the movie information clearly states 'Size: 3.15 GB (1080p)', at no point, anywhere on that page, does it state you'll only be getting a 720p movie.
Sorry to hear that. I honestly don't know either. Maybe this will take some time until 720p is upgraded to 1080p. I have also recently learned that if you delete your show or movies, you can't really RE-Download them without buying them again, this seems to be in Australia too (this excludes apps). So I didn't want to take any chances myself and live with 720p. The question is what happens when Apple comes up with a Retina display TV, surely by then they would upgrade to 1080p ;-)
Ah, no, movies (in Australia) can't be re-downloaded, but TV shows definitely can (as well as music & apps). Definitely backup any iTunes movie purchases & digital copies you may have. For any TV show I buy through iTunes, I still download it and back it up. I know you're meant to be able to re-download them at any time via iCloud, but I'd hate to want to go and watch a show only to find it no longer available.
I'm 99.9% certain the ability to re-download movies (like they can in the US), the high pricing, and the whole 720p/1080p debacle isn't really an Apple issue anyway, it'll be the content companies putting restrictions on Apple. So a Retina TV display from Apple, won't make a difference unless the content providers loosen their grip a little.
Yesterday, Apple announced that shortly they will start selling HD quality movies for download from the iTunes store. While it sounds like a great idea, the business model is completely flawed and clearly the movie studios are living in a bubble. As I have mentioned in the past, how on earth can the studios continue to charge more for a digital download than a physical DVD?
With digital downloads, studios don't have to pay to produce the DVD or any of the packaging. The bandwidth cost to download a two hour movie costs pennies and online promotion of digital content is a lot less expensive than other forms of marketing. Yet even with all those savings, the studios charge more for digital downloads. While one could say this is an iTunes issue, it's not. Looking at CinemaNow or any of the other online movie services and you'll see that digital movies cost between $3-$5 more than buying the actual DVD.
Netflix and other streaming companies say your internet service needs to run at least 5 Mbps for streaming high-definition shows and movies, but that's sufficient for only one user at a time. As you can see from the chart above, 18 Mbps is really the minimum speed most homes will need for streaming 4K movies and TV shows from Amazon Prime Video and Netflix. (Netflix recommends a 25 Mbps speed for streaming 4K, while Amazon says you'll need at least 15 Mbps for the highest-quality video.)
The good news is that networks are getting faster. The average download speed in the U.S. jumped 35 percent last year, topping 95 Mbps, according to Ookla. That's the company behind Speedtest, a tool consumers can use to measure their home's internet speed. Fast download speed is critical for watching streaming movies and TV shows at home.
If you are still being bugged by errors and glitches, you may want to try Cinema HD alternatives. There are several services out there that let you watch movies and TV shows, and they may be a better fit for your phone.
With a download speed of 50Mbps, you can download an entire music album in about 14 seconds. It will take 11 minutes to download a HD-quality film (1080p quality) and about 53 minutes to download an ultra-HD quality movie (4K quality).
You may want to upgrade your download speed plan to make sure your signal is strong enough to get good Wi-Fi for streaming if you work from home or have friends over to watch movies often so there is enough for every device and person.
And if your internet speed seems slow only when you stream movies, you should look into getting a Roku or another dedicated streaming device. That way, high-definition video streams won't have to buffer because of other apps.
With a 100Mbps connection, you can also download files fairly quickly. For instance, a music album will download in around 7 seconds and a HD-quality movie will download in about 5 minutes. Browsing the internet and receiving emails should be near-instantaneous on a 100Mbps connection.
With a download speed of 100Mbps, you can download an entire music album in about 7 seconds. It will take 5 minutes to download a HD-quality film (1080p quality) and about 27 minutes to download an ultra-HD quality movie (4K quality).
Nowadays, this resolution is becoming unnoticeable. It is because of the development of higher resolutions like 720p, 1080p, and many more. 1080p is most likely the best resolution many people are using today.

At a glance, Project GXS is similar to one of the many fan-created blogs on anime. But clicking onto the index brings up a mammoth list of all the movies listed on the site. Some of the titles offer direct downloads apart from torrenting.
Some of these anime torrenting sites also provide filters that return the torrent results of animes within specific dates. Your chances of watching old movies on torrent sites are higher than tuning in to the mainstream streaming providers.
However, there are also lots of illegitimate streaming sites that host copyrighted material without legal permission. You can watch movies for free using these websites, but you may be breaking the law as it is considered piracy in many countries.
Most new movies and Peacock Originals are paywalled, but there are also lots of great movies you can stream without paying, from cult classics to contemporary comedies. Free movies are marked by the absence of a purple feather.
You can download the Peacock app or stream on its website, both of which are a pleasure to use. We do wish there was a way to find all the free movies under one category. Currently you have to scan and scroll the website.
Alongside a premium subscription option, there is a large library of free and popular movies. The website and app is simple and polished and there are fewer intrusive ads compared to other free movie sites.
Unlike with Crackle and Pluto TV, Popcornflix shows foreign-language movies in their original audio. As Crackle and Popcornflix share movies, you can find subtitles for the same movie on Popcornflix.
If you live outside of Canada, you need a VPN with Canadian servers to stream movies, but this is easily done. With 244 servers in three Canadian cities, we recommend the best VPN for Canada, NordVPN. 2ff7e9595c
