Almost all the apps on the App Store are paid, and since I'm returning this damn iPad to my sister in a week, who, by the way, is quite happy with it because she only uses it as a navigation device, e-reader, and web browser, I won't buy anything there.
Of course, there are ways to play videos in other formats. I even tried converting mkv to mp4, but I had some serious issue with the audio track, so the rear speakers were in my left ear, and the front speakers were in my right. I spent four days trying to fix it and gave up; I'll watch Hide and Seek at home on the couch with Blu-ray and surround sound.
So, I simply decided not to bother and watch what's available on Rutracker in the iPad section while I have it.

I have a negative bias towards comedies. It's bad, but I can't help it. And yes, there's no anniversary edition on Rutracker for iPad.
