Delete Automatically Downloaded SD Films In iTunes To Free Up Space

For a while, when you purchased a HD film from the iTunes Store it automatically also downloaded the SD version. For people with small hard drives, this is a massive waste of space. Finer Things in Tech suggests you delete those old copies.

iTunes has stopped automatically downloading both the HD and SD version of films, but if you have a bunch of old films on your hard drive it’s worth looking to see if you can delete some doubles. Just head into your iTunes’ movie folder (usually C:UsersusenameMusiciTunesiTunes Media on Windows or ~/Music/iTunes Media/ on a Mac) and check through each of your movie folders. If you have both, you’ll have one labelled (HD) and one without a label. You can delete the one without a label.
