I'm sure I'm doing something stupid, but here's the deal. I purchased Season 10A of South Park after the season was over. All 7 episodes downloaded fine. After the third episode of Season 10B I purchased the season. The first 3 episodes downloaded as expected. As far as I can tell, the fourth episode is available, but it doesn't download. I'm under the impression that once new episodes become available, they automagically download (or as the help says, they are automatically added to my download queue). Is there something I can do to trigger the download?

I'd say that it's either an availability thing (it shows up just to get your attention but isn't available until a while after the episode airs) or it's not automagic, or both. I haven't played with anything like a season pass myself, but to me the store should make it clear whether or not an episode is really available (and if you've already bought it in advance you should be able to get it before everybody else). But as for the automatic download, I really don't have a clue.

The help does say to choose Store > Check for Purchases to make sure I've got the latest episodes. I've tried that.. but it still doesn't download episode 4 even though it shows up as available for purchase.
