Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

If I delete a movie on my iPad will I still be able to download it again in the future without paying again?

I have purchased a film but when space becomes unavailable I will delete it to make room for other things but I still want it in case I want to watch it in the future, will i still be able to download it without purchasing it again, will it be available in iCloud and still in my library if I delete it?

iPad, iOS 6.0.1

Whether you can re-download films depends upon what country that you are in - they can't be re-downloaded in all countries, and even where they can, not all film studios have agreed to it (and there is no guarantee that a film will remain in the store for re-downloading in the future). You are better off copying it to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases so that you can take a backup of it before deleting it from your iPad, rather than relying on being able to re-download it in the future.
