Is it possible to make iTunes rentals last longer?
"I really want to make my rental last longer as I haven't managed to watch it yet. Please answer soon!! I only have 1 hour left before it disappears. Also I have iTunes 10 if that helps."
Who else thinks iTunes Movie rentals need to last longer than 24 hours before they expire?
"Not to get into specifics, but it sometimes takes me 2 days to watch 1 movie - especially if the movie is 2+ hours long.
If 8pm is the only time i can start to watch a rental, but I can't finish it that night, I NEED to watch the rest before 8pm the next day. What ends up happening is I never make that 8pm cut off and can never watch the endings!
I need apple to extend the rental period a few more hours. Perhaps to 30, because 24 isn't cutting it for me."
Do you also have the same problem?
Renting movie from iTunes will be respectively cheaper, but one annoying thing is that there is rental period for the movies. Normally, the rental period will be 24 hours in U.S.A, but 48 hours in Canada (Yes, it's kind of per-country rules). Though we have 30 days to start watching, we can't make the rental period counting stop once start watching. What ends up happening is if we have not enough time to finish the movie, we can never watch the endings.
