Including an MP4 encoder into iTunes would cost lots of bucks.

Not what you said but hey ho.
I just don't understand why people are jumping onto Steve's back when he asked fairly sensible questions. Bottom line is, if you download a film there is a 99.9% chance you'll need to convert before bunging it on your iPad. Unless you spunk £10.99 on a film from iTunes (or manage to download the film in MP4/Mov format, not formats that are widely used)

Dom I am saying iTunes is designedto work with the iPad.
Buy a movie (no matter the cost) and transfer it and watch. Couldn't be any more simple?!
Outside of that is irrelevant tbh!

People should look elsewhere if that doesnt suit them. Rather than moan. If I wanted a car with 5 doors I'd buy one. I wouldnt moan about one's with 3 doors.

Perhaps, but it doesn't mean people can be jumped up cunts for the sake it. Plus Steve has highlighted one of the major flaws with the iPad in that you can't, unless you've paid the £11 quid (stupid amount when BRs are similarly priced) and downloaded it through iTunes, simply grab a film and watch it.

Why is it a stupid amount?
The whole idea is you would buy it INSTEAD of a bd, or the bd would cone with a digital copy which you can put on iTunes> iPad

No sympathy, the guy posts a fair amount of spam aka shit himself ie: a few post up. But it was a fair question and something that could have been debated rather than people getting jumped up and taking the mick (as seen in other similar threads).
Jambo - Rental costs are ok, it's comparable to Sky Box Office/VM On Demand in terms of cost and quality of media. But they're charging BD prices (£10-15 for HD) for non-BD quality media (iTunes is 720p compressedd/4Mbps), which is a rip.

Exactly, I dont think anyone on this site was more dedicated to the Symbian OS than me, i swore by it right through the whole nokia range, then when the 3GS came out i was gone, it just works, Ive had mine since release date, this is the longest ive ever owned a phone
All my mates used to follow me on phones then as soon as i said i had switched to iPhone every mate made the switch too!
