Movie rented on ATV, but I'm trying to view on iMac also
I rented a movie last night on my ATV, but now I'm trying to view it again on my iMac, but can't locate it. What do I need to do?
Apple TV (3rd generation), Other OS, ATV 7.0.2

Movies rented on Apple TV can only be viewed there. In future best to rent on iMac, then you can also use home sharing to display on Apple TV

I understanding what you’re saying, perfectly. But I wonder about the theory behind why they let you share in one direction but not the other. (BTW that was a rhetorical question/statement.)
To give some more clarity. Rentals are only accessible on the device in which they were made, and are not part of your purchases in the cloud (as per the studios). The only way to stream to another device is by using home sharing, since it allows access to ones iTunes library via the local network.
