Consumers have been willing to spend 99 cents to buy Shakira's "Hips Don't Lie" or $1.99 for an episode of "Desperate Housewives" from iTunes.
Now Steven P. Jobs is betting they will also pay $9.99 to download "The Godfather" to play on their iPods.
For weeks, Apple Computer has been talking with executives at all the major studios — including the Walt Disney Company, 20th Century Fox, Warner Brothers and Universal Studios — about adding movies to its popular iTunes music store, several people involved in the negotiations said.
The article says Jobs wants to have deals in place by this fall. What would be the first movie you would buy for your iPod? (if you had a video enabled one that is)
Mine would be The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies (1964).
OK not really, but one movie I can't find anywhere that I really do want to see is the Decline of Western Civilization II. CONTACT: Leave me a Houston or Texas media news tip | COMMENT: Click to leave your thoughts on this post here
