iTunes for TV is here!!!

The British aren’t coming … they’re here!  The BBC will move a step closer to delivering what it calls “iTunes for the broadcast industry” later this year, launching a public trial of iMP, which allows viewers to download any show from the previous week that they may have missed.

Some of us call this a PVR, but this feature set actually let’s you go back and get something you have forgotten to record.  Humm … that sounds like VOD.  Well, now that you mention it … it is VOD.  Read the article, then decide.  In any event, we won’t be doing it here in the States until about a zillion business rules get worked out.
