Question

Answer 1

You should use Cache Directory if you want to cache anything without user's action or your app will get rejected if you dont follow the instructions:

============EDIT=========

the fact is: 2Gb is the app size limit, and the app's directory can more than 2Gb; I found it from apple doc is here , search keyword "2G"

I don't know if apple did some change, I use an app named PPTV, it can store videos from server, and more than 2Gb; what happens?

Answer 3

I don't know much about this, I had seen a comment in discussions.apple.com like: There is a limit of 2 GB.

Files in the document directory stay there permanently until the app is removed.
