Rentals in i-Tunes

Apple is in the news again. And I am not talking about breaking the $200 per share price point. ( Congratulation Jobs) but the new deal with News Corp’s 20th Century Fox will start allowing rentals of movies from movies. I really like this move because who wants to own all the movies from you watch. I am one of those who like to rent more then own, because if I own I will only watch the movie once and it will be years before I will watch it again. So I great for those who are i-tunes stuck and i-pod owners now you will not feel guilty deleting movies from you i-pod when it gets full. My guess is Disney will so follow in the i-rental-movie-business. Click here to read more
