1. Google Play VS. iTunes, Which is The Best Movie Store?

Google always do their best to compete with Apple in entertainment ecosystem. That's why Google Play comes out. What makes the Google Play appealing to consumer is that it provides service to iOS users now.

The movies you buy or rent on Google Play is so cheap as the same in iTunes movie store. But to my opinion, the movie quality is much better in iTunes store, epecially Apple promotes the iTunes extras free nowadays. We can stream the DVD-style iTunes extras to Apple TV for watching the movie in big screen on TV. It's controllable like playing DVD disc now. But the advangate of Google Play is that it supports both Android users and iOS users, which can not be overlooked as well. Of course, there are still some flaws in Google iOS app. For example, you can't buy or rent movies through the iOS app itself, because Google want to avoid the sale tax. It only lets you watch the movies you paid elsewhere. The second one is that you can't download movies into the Google iOS app to watch while you're offline; you can only stream them online.

Maybe the conclusion is that Google Play is still the best movie store choice for Android users, and iTunes store is the best movie store for iOS users.
