I don't even own a trackpad. Also, it happens when I carefully and deliberately

Hi,
We don't even have movies in our store where I am, apparently. In fact, I
remember seeing the item for Films one time, but it's no longer there. I wonder
what happened. I feel so sad. I'm hoping it's just me being dense, and it's
moved to some faraway place that I'm too dim to find.

Actually, if you're forcefully demanding rights in the US, you're liberal. :)
I too think that the iTunes store should give the option of purchasing
described movies. It would be lovely.

This is an apple bug, besides apple's own status menus, others are not
