Apple adds PBS shows to iTunes
Posted in iTunes by The Macalope at 1:41 pm |

Geek that he is, the Macalope is excited to see that you can now download individual episodes of NOVA (and other PBS shows) from the iTunes Store.  At first the $8 price tag seemed a little hefty, but the same shows on DVD are $18 from Amazon.

The Macalope wouldn’t be surprised if that’s the largest iTunes discount there is.  Wal-Mart and Target are not going to happy about that.

How many NOVA DVDs do you suppose Wal-Mart moves in an average month?

Worldwide? Two. The Macalope’s more speaking about record-setting iTunes discounts.

Can you not already watch episodes of Nova (and Frontline, etc.) on PBS’s website?
