| I submitted a news story about the NBC thing. At the time of course NBC was whining about price, that Jobs wouldn't charge $4-$5 for a show.
Then when they come back with their tail between their legs, they began with the piracy talk. Apple already has DRM on videos and NBC wanted tags placed on ALL imported content going into iTunes making it into a piracy gateway. Yeah right.
Meanwhile we got the pricing annoucements for NBC shows. Not only are the shows still $1.99, but now we get older episodes (eg Heroes) for only $0.99.
Like music, I guess NBC sees iTunes as a vehicle for promotion as well as revenue (even though the revenue may be small). |
