Q: TV Shows in iTunes: Bundle vs. Individual Seasons

When I originally purchased Game of Thrones I had the option of buying Seasons 1-3 as a bundle or buying each season separately.  Buying them as a bundle saved a little bit of money so I opted for the bundle, thinking that they would still download and show up as individual seasons in iTunes (3 different seasons, 3 different cover arts, with 10 episodes each, etc.).  Unfortunately it only download as one item with one cover art and 30 episodes.Screen Shot 2015-10-07 at 8.15.19 AM.png

Now I want to buy the other 2 seasons of Game of Thrones (Season 4 and Season 5), but there is no bundle, and I'm wondering - if I buy those individual seasons, will they "add themselves" to my current "Game of Thrones" entry in iTunes (with the single cover art), or will I have three items in iTunes then?

 

i.e.,

1. Seasons 1-3

2. Season 4

3. Season 5

 

If that's the case, is there any way to split the Seasons 1-3 bundle into the individual seasons so everything's consistent?  Is that something I can contact Apple Support to do?

 

Thanks for any replies.

    I can't answer the question, but I am also interested in understanding this.

     

    There is a season 1-6 bundle for Game of Thrones available that I'm tempted to buy, but there will be other seasons coming and I would either want them all separate or all together.  I assume like my other series is that they get bundled together and then when you click on a cover art you see all the seasons you've purchased.

     

    Can anyone confirm if this is the case.  I don't want to be disadvantaged by buying the bundle.  Can you download individual seasons even if bought in a bundle, since the bundle will disappear and become season 1-7 bundle next year no doubt
