GristyMcFisty used our news submit to tell us that we may be seeing
another outlet for downloaded movie titles, this time from Apple...
 Apple will debut a new video download service tomorrow, if the rumours currently spooling around the industry proves correct. An invitation to the latest Apple conference was sent out to a select bunch in the media with the tagline 'It's Showtime".
Speculation is rife that Apple could also
launch a new iPod with a wider screen for movie fans wanting to watch
videos downloaded from the Apple movie store. Steve Jobs is the biggest
stockholder at the Walt Disney Company, after acquiring Pixar Animation
Studios Inc earlier this year. Business Week reports that this
'connection provides a natural toehold for Disney to be among the first to
sign a distribution deal." |
According to the report at the Register, other Hollywood
studios are apparently in discussion with Apple for movie download deals as
well.
