Apple TV HD Movies Vs. iTunes HD Movies And ATVJ
As most of the visitors to ATVJ know, our goal here is to track all of the HD content available for the Apple TV wether it be Movies or TV, along with tracking some SD content like the daily new additions or $.99 rentals. With the addition of HD rentals through iTunes, we have run into the problem where the HD rental titles available for the Apple TV far outnumber the HD rental titles available from iTunes. Until Apple or the studios brings the HD rentals for both sources into sync, we will do our best to label everything either Apple TV HD or iTunes HD. Hopefully this will keep everything clear for everyone.

We know there’s a difference in the SD quality when renting through iTunes -vs- AppleTV… anyone know if there is any difference in the HD quality between the two sources?

Good idea.
So… what’s an example of this labeling you’re using?

For instance, all daily HD updates will now be called Daily Apple TV HD Updates. That’s just for starters, If there are additions to the iTunes HD Rentals, that update will be labeled accordingly.
