Have you heard the biz about Apple iTunes lately? If you enjoyed listening to your
favorite MP3 songs in your iPod and indulged in purchasing MP3's and videos from the iTunes Music Store, who says you can't delight in watching your favorite TV series on your iPod or your Mac PC? Now Apple has made that extremely possible. iTunes is now offering for sale Fox TV programs such as "24," "Prison Break," " Buffy The Vampire Slayer" and a lot more. The shows are priced $1.99 for each episode from Fox Entertainment library. Unfortunately, they're not offering
American Idol just yet, but with the numbers (read: millions of voters) that tune in to the reality show every week, who knows, right?
Anyway, although Apple is not making much from these offerings, as its major revenue are sourced from Apple hardware, the latest addition of
Fox Television shows are meant to increase the products offered in iTunes Music Store. The company is making only 11% from the purchases made on iTunes. Fox is the fourth network that offers TV shows for sale at the iTunes store along with NBC, CBS and ABC. Since the iTunes Music Store started its service in October, Apple sold over 25 million music videos and television shows.
