Free iTunes Television Show Downloads

It's great that Apple has made the SNL skit a free download but inane that it's not available in Canada. If it's free, what does it matter where you download it!?

I really don't understand these comments (especially the ones faulting Apple for this)...

Apple has gotten permission to give away certain videos for free (likely someone is paying for it) in the United States from the rights holder . It is the rights holder (could be many) along with governments / trade orginizations / unions that define what Apple can and cannot do with these videos. In fact even if the rights holder wanted to allow wider distributions they could be limited by local laws / trade orginizations / unions from doing so without lots of paper work, if even possible.

Well, he's no Paul McGann, but seeing as RTD does not wish to give the role back to him, Tennant will be a good second place pick... :)

Here's hoping!

Still, it bugs me that neither Eccleston nor Tennant are/were willing to sign on the dotted line for a 5 year contract whereas McGann was but was robbed of the chance to do the show once the Fox Network passed up on it because they were disappointed at the ratings the TV Movie pulled because they picked the very worst timeslot ever to present it in...

But I digress...

Agreed, it is too bad. I was hoping CE would stay on longer, but hey, what can you do.

But yes, enough OT Doctor Who chat - if you would like to chat more about the show though, check out this thread. :cool:

Yo any pro knows that the real dilly at Magnolia is the banana pudding and the ice box cake. The cupcakes are a smoke screen to keep the amateurs from eating the good stuff ;)

Mr. Pibb is a Coca-Cola product. If it isn't available in Canada, you should send Coca-Cola Canada some emails about the situation.

From my understanding, Coke debuted (and emphasized) Mr. Pibb as an answer to Dr. Pepper at the expense of another Coke product named Tab. Tab virtually disappeared for a good ten years here in the States, but I started noticing it back on store shelves last year although its not a wide release. I think Coke is testing it in different regions...

Hey, definitely tried to contact Coca-Cola, have even spoken to the actual people delivering the products (who knew a lot actually) and there are no plans to bring it up north... as a matter of fact it seems to be disappearing even in the northern parts of the US. It is, to my understanding, a very popular drink in the southern areas and that seems to be their target market.

Tab on the other hand was fairly easy to get. My Aunt lives in Sarnia (near Michigan) and pretty much every store in Port Huron (I think its Port Huron) carries Tab.. most have never even heard of Mr. Pibb (or Pibb Xtra)
 
lyrics

I just noticed that iTunes can't paste lyrics into video files. I hope Apple changes that.

Magnolia Bakery is such a pain to get into now that the Sex & The City tour stops there. Going to Corner Bistro and then Magnolia used to be a great time; now I can't get into either one.

btw: I personally go for the German chocolate cake.

Here's the lyrics:


Lazy Sunday, wake up in the late afternoon.
Call Parnell just to see how he's doing.
Hello? What up, Pars!
Yo Sandburg, what's crackin?
You thinkin' what I'm thinkin'?
Narnia! Then it's happenin'!
But first, my hunger pangs are sticking like duct tape.
Let's hit up Magnolia and mack on some cupcakes.
No doubt, that bakery's got all the bomb frosting.
I love those cupcakes like McAdams loves Gosling.
Two, no six, no twelve, bakers dozen!
I told you that I'm crazy for these cupcakes, cousin!
Yo, where's the movie playin?
Upper west side, dude!
Let's hit up Yahoo Maps to find the dopest route.
I prefer Mapquest!
That's a good one too.
Googlemaps is the best!
True that! Double true!
68th and Broadway.
Step on it sucka!
What you want to do chris?
snack attack, mutha----!

The Chronic-what?-cles of Narnia!
Yes, the Chronic-what?-cles of Narnia!
We love that Chronic-what?-cles of Narnia!
Pass that Chronic-what?-cles of Narnia!

Yo, stop at the deli.
The theatre is overpriced!
You got that backpack?
I'm going to pack it up nice.
We don't want security to get suspicious!
Mr. Pibbs plus red vines equals crazy delicious.
Reach in my pocket and pull out some dough,
Girl acted like she never seen a $10 before!
It's all about the Hamiltons baby
Throw the snacks in a bag and I'm Ghost like Swayze.

Roll up to the theate
Ticket buying what we're handling,
You can call us Aaron Burr from the way we're dropping Hamiltons
Parked in our seats movie trivia is the illest!
"What friends alum starred in films with Bruce Willis?"
We answered so fast it was scary:
Everyone stared in awe when we screamed Matthew Perry!
Then quiet in the theatre or it's gonna get tragic
We're about to be taken to a dream world of magic

In the Chronic-what?-cles of Narnia!
Yes, the Chronic-what?-cles of Narnia!
We love that Chronic-what?-cles of Narnia!
Pass that Chronic-what?-cles of Narnia!

The free BattleStar Galactica episode link is in this news story. That takes you to the right section of the iTunes Music Store, where you can click buttons for other episodes.
 
wow, this is actually a lot better quality at fullscreen on my powermac 1680X1050 than i thought it would be. However i still wont be buying episodes on iTMS because i LOVE having DVDs because i love the DVD cases and boxsets.
 
I'm like that when it comes to purchasing CD's. I love to look at the artwork and physically opening the packaging, reading the lyrics, etc. Oh, and I can get the CD signed at concerts by my favorite bands :D

Looks like I am out of the loop with being able to download these episodes. No matter. I was not going to watch them anyway until the next session airs.
