Apple has brought on lots of similar makeovers on the new iTunes 11.

It will automatically track your iTunes purchases and list the items. That is, if you buy a track from iTunes on an iCloud-enabled device, it will appear in your library. Hence, you can enjoy particular tack from any iCloud compatible device out there. This way, you can begin watching a movie on your iPhone and resume it in iPod touch or iPad.
