Question: How do I get iTunes to stop downloading?

How can I remove unwanted downloads from my iTunes queue so they won't get in the way of the stuff I do want?

Every time I buy an HD version of a TV program from iTunes, I get saddled with the SD download as well. It's very considerate and all, but I actually don't want those versions. Now, every time I connect to the store to try and get a different program, the store automatically resumes all the TV downloads I keep trying to stop. It's getting to where I can't clear those out of the way and iTunes is telling me that my disk is full.

How do I stop this? I just wanna get some copies of Mad Men to watch with my gf tonight, and would like the Lost episodes I've already seen to step out of the way.

On the downloads page you can drag the items to a different order.... If you don't have an X to the right to cancel then I don't know what's happening. Screenshot?

(disclaimer - I've just done podcast downloads, not tv show downloads so this might be different)

Ah, man -- responding here after a month of no answers. I don't think anyone really seems to know ...
