Desperate Housewives episodes among first iTunes Music Store TV shows
If you're a rabid Desperate Housewives fan, you'll be happy to know that three episodes of Desperate Housewives from season 2 and six episodes from the show's first season are among the first of the TV shows available for download from the iTunes Music Store. Each episode is $1.99. and runs for around 43 minutes. Jobs announced today that other tv shows to be available from iTunes Music Store will include Lost, Nightstalker, The Suite Life, and other ABC and Disney shows.

I downloaded Itunes 6.0, bought and downloaded Desperate Housewives S2E01 and tried to open it in Quicktime 7.0.3 and Itunes, but it didn't work. Any advice/people with the same problem

Not if you live in the UK they aren't.
Just installed iTunes 6 and all I can buy is some crappy music videos that are available on tv shows etc for free.
And they wonder why the majority of UK ISP's bandwidth is now used up by people downloading tv shows via torrents.

The Canadian ITMS doesn't seem to have any TV Shows at all, just some (free) music videos.
Guess we're months (if not years) away from it, but I am sure "Corner Gas" will be the first show for sale.

Just bought Episode 2x01 of "Lost". File size ended up being 240 MB. The download time from Apple was around 8 minutes. The video quality was rather impressive for the file size.
It does not appear that you are able to download Movie Trailers to your iTunes folder? I wonder if this is something in the works.

240MB???? That seem big but I guess it's an hour. I'm very excited for TV in iTunes as I hate programming the VCR. Can we burn the videos to VCD or DVD?

Kevan you are not alone, here in Switzerland the ITMS does not have trace of TV Shows, which I kinda expected because of the copy rights and so on...
So, back to Bittorrent! (Hey Lost is on tonight!)
And by the way, does anybody know if you can purchase TV Shows and watch them with Elgato's EyeHome media player?
Currently EyeHOme cannot play music purchased from ITMS. If it's the case also for shows, it will never be a go for me... I watch shows primarily on my TV, not on my ipod...
