    I don't want info on Ipod, Ipad or Iphone, I want a reply to my question!!! if I delete a tv show from my computer library, will it still be in Icloud.  I don't want to permanently delete items, just remove from my computer and get them when I want them in the cloud.  Quit sending me articles APPLE on deleteing from mobile devices,  THat is not what I am asking about.

    It depends on your country, but if so, the copy there shouldn't be considered to be a substitute for a backup; the copyright holder may choose to remove it at any time. Put it on an external drive.

    My external drive Time Capsule failed.  I had to reinstall my itunes library on my computer and all my tvshows and movies started to download to my computer from the cloud.  I stopped it but now I want to remove them from my comptuer and just have them in the cloud.  Why is this so diffiecult to find answers too?  External drives fail!!!  even apples. this was my second time capsule to fail in two years. I won't buy one again.

    Deleting them from your computer won't delete them from the iCloud, but if the copyright holder chooses to remove them from the iTunes Store, you won't be able to redownload them from it.
