Apple iPad Wallpapers

Apple has forever changed the way we listen to music with the iPod. With next month’s debut of the iTV, it could also alter the way we watch television. Now Apple may be going into the TV rental market.

According to Bloomberg News, Apple is very close to negotiating deals to offer TV shows for rent at 99¢ each. The companies involved are News Corp. (parent company of FOX), CBS and the Walt Disney Company (parent company of ABC). Not surprisingly, those luddites at NBC are lagging behind, as usual.
Shows would be available for 48 hour rentals through the iTunes store and can be viewed on the iPod, iPad or iPhone. I’m kinda scratching my head over this, since the most recent eps of most current series are already available online through Hulu or the network websites. There has to be more to this than we’re hearing so far.
