Why do videos automatically download when purchased in iTunes store on my iPad.

I have disabled automatic downloads for everything (Music, Apps, Books, and updates) within Settings/iTunes & App Store but when I buy a video at work, start to download it, and then head home with my iPad before it has finished downloading. It always starts to continue download when I get home, even though the iTunes store or video app is not open. How do I stop this behavior?
