Apple Does Video Subscription

by Guy Brighton

We talked recently about the prospect that iTunes will offer a subscription film-download service offering thousands of films each month. Yesterday, Apple launched a subscription service for TV shows. Reuters says that iTunes is launching the service in partnership with Viacom Inc.’s Comedy Central Network, which is rolling out “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart” and “The Colbert Report” on the service. Fans will be able to buy the next month’s series of 16 new episodes via Multi-Pass for $9.99, or to pay $1.99 per episode.
