Apple TVThe first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this atwww.speedtest.net.
1080p HD movies require a recommended speed of 8 Mbps, 720p HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.

Jan 14, 2013 3:20 PM in response to Winston Churchillby fredfromkillyleagh,Hi yes purchased many things rented film 2 nights ago an it was down within 2mins while i did other things on net. I have changed router to spare one and restarted machine still the same I then switched download to another drive and it is still dead slow. 23:16pm here won't get watching it here tonight very dissapointed but as the say **** happens. I tink i can pick it up tomorrow in local asda store from about the same or cheaper on blu-ray. Allways wondered if the difference between HD 1080p download in itunes is anyway near blu-ray quality especialy in sound.
