I saw during the keynote that the new iPhone software supports movie subtitles and multi-language tracks. Does that mean the movies on iTunes have these features? Is there any way to tell what languages the movie comes with?

Yes, but does that mean every movie you buy / rent from iTunes has those tracks?

*shrug* http://www.apple.com/itunes/store/movies.html doesn't say a single word about "subtitles" or "closed captioning".

The example he gave during the keynote showed Ratatouille with French subtitles and a French language track. I just wish I could know which movies had French subtitles before I rented them.

*Bump*

So has anyone rented a movie yet to confirm that they have multi-language tracks / subtitles?

yeah, inquiring minds wanna know! I'd love to get my hands on an iPod Touch but not 'til I see evidence that movies/shows available through iTunes support captions/subtitles (I bumped another thread on this earlier...)

Well, I finally found a clear answer. From Paul Thurrot, of all places:
