    I'm completely mystified by how poorly organized movies are. If there's a way to simply browse "all available rentals" or "all available HD rentals" I can't find it.



    Apple seems to assume that anyone coming to look at movies on the iTunes Store is just interested in the latest or most popular offerings, or already knows what they want.



    The iTunes Store is in desperate need of a major overhaul, IMO.

    In the left-hand side of the movies section of iTS, you should see panels labeled "iTunes Store," then "Top Movie Sales," then "Genres," and finally "More in Movies." The first selection available in this last panel is "All Rentals." But unless you want to browse through dozens of pages of titles, this is hardly helpful.



    I agree that the store is pretty useless unless you know which movie you want to find -- even the "advanced search" is pretty limiting, not even allowing one to search according to customer rating

    Hmmm...... the first selection in the "More in Movies" pane, for me, is "HD Movies." There is no "All Rentals."



    This is iTunes 8.1, maybe there's been an update I haven't bothered with?
