    3. Once you have signed in, you will have two option
      to stream       or download movies to this device to watch offline.
    4. Select download movies to this device to watch offline and click on next.

    6. Once the payment it done, open Movies & TV application to download the movie.

    Upcoming PC games release dates (US)

    I prefer alphabetical myself as some are totally TBA I guess. Don't know, not my list. Could even be sorted into a Genre - Release Date - Alphabetical order. Then again alphabetical is easy enough. Make some suggestions to the OP.
