i had 15 dollars on my itunes account then downloaded a movie that was 9.99 and instead of me having 5.01 left i only had 4.20 is this because of tax or did something go wrong?
and how long should it take to download its a 1.22 gig movie and i have a fast internet connection and it sais it will take 6 hours.
Yes there is tax on movie purchases and rentals just as there are on iTunes music purchases.
On my DSL connection, that 1.2 GB movie would take about 2 hours. Everyones connections will vary because of download speeds. I rented Superbad over the weekend and it took just over two hours to download.
I am assuming you are in the US. If Apple has a physical presence in your state & your state charges sales tax, then by law Apple is required to charge tax on all store transactions.
