Will Someone Change iTunes to iTelevision?
May 26, 2006
Forget listening to your fave newsy podcast, NBC News is joining the downloadable fray. Well, “news” should be in quotation marks because for timely headlines you’ll have to check with MSNBC, CNBC, and their related websites.
But for almost-news — such as a narrated visit to hurricane-ravaged New Orleans or Tom Brokaw extolling about his Favorite, er, “Greatest Generation” — then log onto Apple’s iTunes. For two bucks you can listen to the anchors mellow voices or something a little catchier such as “Tattoos: Skin Deep.” Question: How do you listen to a tattoo?
The most intriguing offering — of vital interest to at least four or five people under the age of 50 — is “a tour of the White House offered by first lady Jacqueline Kennedy.” Now that is the kind of entertainment iTunes was made for!

I hope this indeed the wave of the future. There are so many shows and newscasts that I would like to see again but are unlikely to get largescale DVD releases. Open your vaults studios, people will pay for the material!
