ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ television programmes now available on the iTunes Store



ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Worldwide today announced that a selection of programming will now be available for purchase and download from the iTunes Store in the UK ().

The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ is the first UK broadcaster to offer television programmes on iTunes which can be purchased for £1.89 per episode and then viewed on a Mac or PC, iPod with video, iPhone or Apple TV.

"We want to give audiences a wide variety of options on how and where to view their favourite ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ shows," said Simon Danker, Director of Digital Media at ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Worldwide.

"Television programming has been incredibly popular with iTunes customers in the UK," said Eddy Cue, Apple's vice president of iTunes.

Ìý

"We're thrilled to add hit programming from the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ with favourites including the latest ratings winner, Ashes to Ashes."

Starting today, fans can get the latest Torchwood, Life On Mars, Little Britain, Spooks, Robin Hood and other ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ classics from iTunes to purchase episodes they may have missed or would like to see again. Recently aired programmes, such as Ashes to Ashes, will be available on iTunes after they have been made available on the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ iPlayer.

Making ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ programming available on the iTunes Store is key to ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Worldwide's stated objective to secure the broadest possible distribution strategy for its huge range of television content.Ìý

Alongside the company's existing deals with online outlets such as YouTube and MySpace and in addition to its recently announced Video on Demand (VOD) service with ITV and C4 called 'Project Kangaroo', the availability of programming on iTunes brings the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½â€™s content to millions of new viewers.
