Big Announcements From Apple Today

I guess cornering the online music distribution and animation market is not enough for Steve Jobs. Rumor has it, well it’s pretty much a done deal that Apple will be announcing later today the availability of full length movies on iTunes (maybe they should change the name now). They even shutdown iTunes temporarily today, a possible hint that the rumors are true. Current reports are saying that only Disney and Pixar movies will be available to download. But I’m sure movies through iTunes will be a hit and other studios will be forced to jump onboard, like some reluctant labels and artists were when iTunes first appeared.

To support movie viewing on your iPod, rumor has it that Apple will also be announcing several new iPods. One of them to have a widescreen that is touch sensitive and bluetooth support.

Looks like another reason to upgrade … why am I such a sucker for these things?
