I complained a bit over a year ago about the quality of the version of The Hunt for Red October that I bought from the iTunes Store. Bizarrely, I get the following email from the iTunes Store this morning:
Dear Rob,
Thank you for downloading the movie The Hunt for Red October. The video you received may have had some noticeable quality issues.
To correct this problem, we placed a new copy of this item in your download queue, free of charge. To begin downloading, click this link:

Or, you can open iTunes and select Check for Available Downloads from the Store menu.
Sincerely,

How very, very odd – and nice.
