Just wondering why FOX hasn't released this season's 24 on itunes yet. Just getting very impatient over being able to download Jack's adventures on my ipod.

Plus with Family Guy and Simpsons on FOX itunes need to get those too!

As far as I can tell Fox does not have any agreement with iTunes for making shows available... yet. Until that happens we won't see any Fox shows on iTunes.

There has been news pointing to fox opening a deal with the itunes music store. I'm sure something will happen soon. I too want to see 24 online. :)

Countless threads on this topic already. Anyhow, there were interviews in BusinessWeek and the New York Times a month or so ago where Murdoch stated that he doesn't believe in the iTunes business model. He wants his compnay to have as much control as possible and said that they wouldn't make the move to iTunes. He said that they would soon have their own delivery system. He also, foolishly said that he can see a day when people will download a 20 second joke snippet from Family Guy to show to their friends.

Yeah - great idea. "Hey everyone, gather 'round my cell to watch this hilarious bit." Not.

My guess is that Murdoch will cave and Fox will eventually come to iTunes.

Yuck, that wasn't the answer I wanted to hear. Very depressing. Back to ripping my 24 DVD's again :(

Stop complaining! At least you have some TV shows to download! Sorry, envy got the better of me.
