Givetvis ska man inte titta på film på iPods skärm. Utan man ska kunna koppla in den på sin TV, ta med filmer man köpt via "iTunes Movie Store" till polare osv osv.
Jag tror det kommer att dröja väldigt länge innan det blir någon "iTunes Movie Store". Jag citerar Steve Jobs i Rolling Stone intervjun:
"Lots people who work in the movie business have watched what's happened to the music industry and think they're next. Do you see that?
Steve: It is a problem. But movies are very different than music. First of all, they're a hundred times larger. So in countries like the U.S., where broadband is not very evolved, it takes forever to download a high-quality version of a movie. And remember that the bar is going to get raised on that quality in another four years, when we have high-definition DVDs in the market. That's going to increase the download times by another ten X. Because people's of what they want are going to go up with that. Second, movies are not deconstructable into songs, like an album is, that are easy to download. Five minutes of a movie isn't very useful. You want the whole thing. Third, there's only been one way to buy your music -- that's on a CD. Look at the ways there are to legally buy a movie -- you can see it at the theater, you can buy it on home video, you can buy on DVD. But you can also rent it at Blockbuster or Netflix. You can watch it on pay-per-view. You can also watch it on cable or network TV. There are a lot of ways to legally get a movie. There was only one way to legally get music. That's a really big difference. The distribution is much more highly evolved in the movie industry than it ever was in the music industry."
