Just as Apple is apparently planning to bring the iTunes Music Store to ten more European countries, the company also seems to be rolling out access to iTunes movie sales and rentals in a number of European countries where it already offers music content.
Movie from Danish iTunes Store
Reports of the new movie offerings began coming in from MacRumors readers late yesterday, with Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, Norway, and Sweden so far having been cited as adding the new movie content. Apple has not yet added a dedicated movie section to the iTunes Store in these new markets, but content is accessible through the store's search function.

The content expansions appear to be extending even beyond music and movies, with macprime.ch reporting [Google translation] that paid iBookstore content has just begun showing up in the Swiss store. The Swiss iBookstore had previously been limited to free content, primarily from Project Gutenberg.
Update: setteB.IT notes that paid iBookstore content is also showing up in Italy.

Since 2023, Apple's newer iPhones have had an 80 percent charge limit for those who want to extend battery lifespan. Charging to 80 percent instead of 100 percent is supposed to put less stress on the battery, improving longevity.

Bloomberg's Mark Gurman recently reported that Apple plans to unveil an all-new home hub, a new HomePod mini, and a new Apple TV 4K on Tuesday, October 13, and MacRumors has since learned about another launch slated for later in the month.
Apple is planning to unveil additional new products in the final week of October, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter.
While we do...
5 euros to rent a movie. Funny how the price of rentals have gone up, food has gone up, taxes up yet our salaries stay the same. Paying 5 euros to RENT a film is not appealing to most. What they should do is make it appealing, price-wise. It's not even economically possible for most. It's not sensible to spend this amount of money on a mere rental when it's the same price as a meal or two. They don't seem to understand that. Maybe it works in the US but this will not work in Europe as living prices are high across the board.
