Do you plan to download TV shows?

They almost certainly will not make it possible to purchase the show in places where it hasn't been released yet
Yes, unless you have a US iTunes account :)

I won't buy them from iTunes. The issue is their size is proportioned for the iPod, not viewing on a computer screen. Unless Apple released and sold full screen versions of the videos, it's not worth it.


I just noticed that part that really sucks. I went to test it out but there is no content in itunes.

No. I don't like spending money.

I can get video from... other sources and format them in FCP.

Yes I think I probably would, if two resolutions were offered, one for the iPod just released (320x240) and a higher resolution (say even 640x480).

Of course not much use to me right now, but when the BBC finally gets content available for download, then it will become interesting. I hope their recent trials are extended to Apple.

We will see.

NO. I think that since I already pay for television I don't see the point in purchasing a show I could get for free. If I missed a show then oh well, it was meant to be missed. I will just wait for the summer reruns.

The VCR and TIVO are two of the greatest inventions and I will utilize them.
