    Your title might confuse people. Ideally what you meant was "When will EU iTunes have Movie Rentals" I take it?

    As far as i know you can buy Apple TV itself now but as for the movie rentals and that, i'd think it'll be a while cause Apple will have to make deals with all of the distribution company's involved for large ares, i.e. they're not going to release it only in Ireland as it's not worthwhile, so at the minimum they'll have to make deals in Ireland, UK and probably a few European countries.

    Not to mention royalty agreements with all the individual companies movie associations, clearing individual companies copyright law, and a number of other hurdles that need to be jumped.
