Hello everyone. I have researched this and I feel like I have the info I need but want to go to the users for confirmation. My wife and I will be traveling soon on a longer flight. We want to download some of our shows to watch on the flight. I know I need the 4K plus subscription to do this. Has anyone had any issues? Will we be able to download as many shows as we want (understanding that we need the space on our device)? Appreciate any info for those of you who are using or have used. Thanks!

Offline video downloads have ramped up in 2019, with more platforms offering the service to their customers than ever before. As competition gets fiercer, being able to offer offline video on demand is one way for subscription services to compete for valuable customer dollars.

Some of these apps make it easy to find videos you can download, the ones that don't will make you dig a little. Also, keep in mind you can't download any titles you want; you'll have to pick and choose from what these platforms make available. -- Disney Plus is the one exception where the entire catalog is up for grabs. Here's how to find and download shows and movies to watch online on the biggest streaming services.

All titles available for download will show you a download icon shaped like an arrow. Some shows you can download on Netflix are Riverdale, The Office, Supernatural and Stranger Things. Click the icon when you've found a show you want to watch offline. When you're ready to watch the show, it'll be in the Downloads tab.

YouTube allows you to download videos, but you must be a Premium member ($12 per month). If a video is downloadable, it'll have a red icon with a down-facing arrow. Click the icon to start downloading and select the video quality you prefer, which ranges from Low resolution (144p) to High (720p). Once the icon turns blue, it's fully downloaded and is ready to be viewed offline.

When you're ready to watch what you've saved, tap the Downloads icon (iOS) or My Stuff > Downloads (Android). Some shows you can download are Good Omens, Carnival Row and Fleabag (the Prime Originals videos we tried were all eligible for download).

Disney Plus doesn't launch until November 12, but it will let you download all of its shows and movies to watch offline, including the Marvel movies and Disney Pixar animated films. We'll update this section once we have more details.

You can now stream your favorite shows and movies offline with Hulu's new download feature. However, you must be subscribed to the no-ads plan and use an iPhone or iPad. Shows and movies that are available for download on Hulu will have an icon next to their titles. There's also a See What's Downloadable section where you can see the full list of movies and shows that are available for download.

Some of the popular shows you can download are The Handmaid's Tale, How I Met Your Mother and This is Us. After you've selected a show to watch, press the Download button. You've got the option to watch the video in Standard or High definition -- just tap the Downloads icon > Settings > and select your choice of video quality. When you're ready to view the show offline later, you can find them in the Downloads section.

That is true, but I also don't want to be chewing up the bandwidth when someone is trying to watch a 4k movie, while I'm trying to do something on my comptuer. Also Australian NBN can be sometimes unreliable so why not have them downloaded off peak time when the NBN is very stable and just view them later?

As someone said above yes this makes sense, but also still chews up the wifi bandwidth when someone is streaming local contents over wifi. Yes it probably isn't that much if it is 1080p, but i don't want unnecessary use of the wifi bandwidth when I have many devices on the network (smart home stuff). Plus if someone is watching 4k, it might be a struggle for sure.

So Netflix's app actually supports downloading content for viewing offline. It sounds like you actually want to rip the video to video files for permanent keeps. There are ways to do this but this kind of discussion probably isn't even allowed here since it is piracy.

Once you start watching a download, you have 48 hours to finish watching it before it expires. Unwatched downloads expire after 30 days. Once expired, you can renew or delete the download.

Disney Plus isn't just home to films but also popular series such Percy Jackson and the Olympians and reality choices like The Kardashians and Banged Up Abroad. If you're signed up to Disney Plus, you can watch all of these and hundreds more without interruption.

Luckily, you can download all content from Disney Plus and watch it on the go, but only if you've got the right subscription plan. If you pay for the Standard Plan or Premium Plan (from 7.99 a month) you can download series, films and shows to your heart's content.

Can you watch downloaded Disney Plus movies offline? Absolutely. Will they automatically be viewed in high-definition? Not necessarily. Disney Plus automatically selects a standard quality for downloading videos.

If you're leaving the country for holiday or work, you can also download on-demand and catch-up shows on the individual players and watch them offline. Useful to know, as you can't stream shows over the internet while you're abroad.

To find programmes to download, just tap the On Demand button on the menu at the bottom of the app. Tap on the programme you want to watch, and you'll be taken to the relevant channel's own player to download it and watch it when you want to (the download will come through the player's app, rather than the Freeview mobile app).

Remember that if you're outside the UK, you can't download any content or stream any shows over the internet. So, make sure you've downloaded whatever you want to watch before you leave, so you can watch it offline when you're away.

So after I purchase content through AppleTV, can I not download that content to the AppleTV 4k device for offline playback? Or does it have to be connected to the internet at all times, with a fast enough speed to stream? Because if that's the case, I think I'd just rather own Blu-ray Discs then if it means I can't watch my movies and tv shows whenever I want to. After all, I purchased that content myself. I own it and I should have the right to play it at anytime, without Apple's permission. What's the point of paying a premium to own content, when it just ends up being treated like a streaming subscription service? Might as well just rent it then?

And yes, I'm aware you can download movies/shows to your iPhone or iPad for offline viewing. I'm asking about the 4K device itself. I don't want to watch stuff on my phone. I want to watch it on my 100" home theater projection screen. Due to high winds, my internet is now down, and AT&T can't get out to fix it for 3 more days. So I'm sitting here staring at my "AppleTV library" on my Apple 4K and I'm kind of upset I can't watch all these things I supposedly own. Doesn't make me want to buy anymore. I wish the Apple TV 4K had a "Download Purchased Content" option so I could host some of these movies/shows on the device itself, for days just like today.

That's not a very good option as the Airplay protocol has a maximum supported resolution of 1080p. I feel like the AppleTV 4K device should support content downloads and offline playback. It's supposed to be a home media center. This makes me not want to buy anything via the AppleTV store. I guess I'll just stick to BluRay and use Netflix/Amazon for streaming.t
