It's already there as Movies and TV shows are in, no Canadian channels. Now where's the iPhone Canadian launch? I called Rogers today and asked about it, they said it's coming before XMas, I don't believe it as January is a possibility after MacWorld as it's kind of close to xmas now, how are they going to market it last minute? Hey apple always finds a way? MacWorld may bring updated iPhones to match ipod touch 16GB capacity or maybe more would be nice.

I think you're looking at the U.S. Store, guy.

Dude, don't call Rogers and ask them questions about the iPhone. The customer reps don't know sh*t, and they're probably just messing with you. I bet they hang up the phone and laugh at all the people who call up and ask about the iPhone.

So we should be able to do the same^ with UK programing then? I don't see why Apple just doesn't do an iNational version of iTunes, so we can get international programing from whatever country we want, sort of like Cable TV packages.

I really want to d/l all of those Korean mini-series dramas/soaps; all they do is eat food constantly, and cry, and cry, and cry (seriously, even the guys in the staring roles). And don't forget about all that 'awesome' content coming out of Bollywood (j/k).

That would be awesome but not likely. See, the content is released in one country before the others, and then sold for a high price to a network in each extra country. Having it available to freely download by anyone in any country immediately would mean the TV companies would make less money off foreign TV networks...

It's a shame it has to be this way, but with money being what it is, I doubt anyone is going to give up that lucrative business just so you can download a show when it's actually released... not months, or years later.

But on that other note, it's simple to get multiple accounts, you need to know someone and buy a iTunes card off them of course, but after that it's all about setting up an account with a NEW e-mail and your sorted.

I currently have access to Australia, Canada, Japan, UK, US. For most of them, when my credit runs out, or expires, that'll be it... but I can still download the free music and movies when they're half-decent ;)

The point is... lets take the powerbook/macbook pro.

It has a dvi output and optical audio out.

Meaning I can hoook my powerbook to my 56 inch HD TV through a DVI/HDMI hookup (full digial power) and hook my powerbook to my 5.1 sterio through optical out/in.

Full digital video and audio from my laptop to my tv/sterio.

and incase your wondering? It looks wonderful.

If thats the case, its said that Canada need Microsoft to open the flood gates... I'm sure apple has been battling this since it introduced this service in the States.... I wonder how long it took Microsoft to do it... Stupid CRTC

Nice!

Looks like their adding them as we type. Nothing that interests me so far (maby RMR)
 
It looks like they're copying code form the US store. The Canada store doesn't have (or need) iTunes Latino, yet is shows in the menu.
 
Downloading an episode of No Opportunity wasted right now

Says 3 hours remaining?:eek:

Update: The episode i bought was called Fear of Driving but it is actually Fear of Water?
I think i'm going to wait until it is officially released to purchase more T.V. shows
 
Yes! Finnaly TV Shows in Canada! I won't have to go to the US as often! Hopefully movies soon, then this will give Canadians a reason to get the Apple TV (other then to put ripped movies, and pirated TV shows on).
