OK, who's gonna be the 1st one to sample Apple's rental fare? And four questions for when you do....

1. Are movies cropped to fill the widescreen? (If so, what do they do about 4:3 material)

2. Do all the movies have 5.1 Dolby surround, or just the HD movies?

3. Concerning the HD movies; Are they all films currently available on HD-DVD/BRD, or is Apple offering some exclusive titles not available on disk yet?

4. Any lagging or picture jitter during the movie? Did you have any other issues the forum should know about? (audio drop-out, pixelation, ghosting, etc etc)

Lower temperatures, people are easy-going, over 92 and it's too hot to move, but just 92, people get irritable."
