Anyone Else Pissed that NBC will no longer be available on Itunes?

Itunes has been the only means of Getting US shows Legally in a decent quality (AFN miltary TV looks terrible!) Overseas while staitioned here overseas, and most of may Favorite are made by NBC Universal (Includes som Sci Fi Channel). I am so disapointed in NBC for giving Apple an unreasonable Contract Offer and at Apple for not being willing to work on some deal.

I am sooo Pissed about that.

Now NBC is offering the shows on Amazon.com Unbox, who uses Unbox?

Unlike Itunes Unbox does not offer it content to people outside the US so NBC just cut is audience down.

Though if it ever Did I can stream Unbox video through my Xbox 360.

Also I am hoping that Xbox 360 will get some more NBC shows, since soon they will be offering thier shows to people in europe and have them in HD.

Did I mention I was Pissed?. :-)

Torrents of shows are still legal as long as they're off the air, as opposed to off DVDs.

That said, yeah, NBC is being a big MPAA style crybaby.

Are you sure about that?.. That does not sound right...

Okay. I've gone and checked. I was wrong. Sorry.

You know, I'm catching a whiff of stink off this. Did NBC ask the same terms of Amazon that they did of Apple itunes? AND Amazon bought in?

Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN)On Sep 12: $78.30
Apple Inc. (AAPL)On Sep 12: $148.94
