I bought an HD movie in iTunes, I want to download the SD version .

Ok, so how do i download the SD version of the video? I cant find the option anywhere. The support page that says you just go to your previous purchases doesnt do anything to help, it just redirects you around until you get frustrated and quit.

Thanks @Japaholic - this solved my issue.

No matter how I tried to configure my iTunes preferences to download only the SD versions, each episode of my TV series was downloading around 2GB, even though "Get Info" reported the size should only be 800MB.

The solution was to not try to download from the "My TV Shows" tab in iTunes but, instead, go to the series within the "iTunes Store", switch to SD and then click the Download link from within the store.
