Apple has added another raft of movies to watch for free with an Apple TV subscription, while seemingly not yet removing all of the previous set.

Apple has famously not bought any broadcaster or streamer’s library of titles, but from early on it has bought the occasional film. Now following one tranche of titles back in August, Apple TV has added still more, all included in its subscription.
Unless you buy out an entire library, then for historical reasons of how films are distributed worldwide, it is extraordinarily complex to acquire the rights to individual titles. Apple has not secured global rights to all of its new titles, either, meaning that different films are available in different countries.
