Watch TV shows online w/iTunes or on new Video iPod
Fresh on the heals of the iPod Nano, Steve Jobs has announced a new Video iPod that is capable of showing downloaded television content.
In order to bring content to consumers, Apple has partnered with ABC/Disney to allow for fast downloading of TV shows. Lost, Desperate Housewives, and many others will be available for download, commercial free, for $1.99 at the iTunes store. You can watch the shows on your iPod, on the TV via an adapter cable, or on your computer in iTunes itself.
Along with the new mp3 player, Apple has also announced its version of the media computer, an iMac with front row software and a remote control. If Apple’s media track record holds up, it’ll be leagues ahead of the Wintel version.
