Purchased movies no longer shown as "Purchased"

Hello everyone.

I am using iTunes 12.1.2.27 64-bit for Windows 7.

Recently I have noticed that all 11 of my purchased movies have stopped being labeled as "Purchased" on their iTunes store page. I am unsure if this is normal or not. I still have all my movies digitally stored on my desktop computer, and I'm hesitant to do anything for fear that I might be unable to re-download my past purchased movies.


Has anyone ever observe this happening before? If you have, do I need to be concerned?

Mine also show with price buttons on them in the store, not as 'purchased'. What you can redownload will show in the Purchased section : either click on the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage, or you can click on your name towards the top right of the iTunes screen and then click Purchased on the popup.


But if not already doing so you should take a backup copy of all of your iTunes downloads, any item could be removed from the store by the rights-holder at any time, in which case you wouldn't be able to redownload them if your computer crashed and contained your only copy of them.
