TUAW iTMS TV show request roundup
About a week and a half ago we ran a poll as to what TV shows you TUAW readers are waiting to be able to buy from the iTMS. You guys rock, as you posted over 100 responses hoping for everything from McGuyver to Star Trek to the Days of Our Lives, so I figured I'd post a tally of the most requested shows just to see who came out on top. Besides, you never know: maybe some of the higher-ups in the network ranks are actually listening. So without further ado, here are your top 5 requested iTMS videos:1) The Daily Show - 23 votes
2) Family Guy - 19 votes
3) CSI - 14 votes
4) The Simpsons - 11 votes
5) A three-way tie between Futurama, Battlestar Galactica and Arrested Development - 10 votes each
24 can get honorable mention with 9 votes. I guess time will only tell as to how quickly more video content shows up in the store, especially if Hollywood and writer/director/actor unions are gumming things up and demanding larger cuts of the video download pie.

"I didn't vote, as I didn't see the pole, but some BBC content would be nice. I would easily pay $1.99 to download Doctor Who." - Logan The BBC have started a program called BBCiMP so people can download a copy of a show 7 days after it's brodcast, only problem is the thing is DRM'd to expire after the 7 day period. I would have thought a partnership with Apple would have been natural. Kinda sucks that outside the US all we have is Pixar, Movie trailers and music videos. :(

Along with the stock "Xvid" version, an MP4 version is now consistently being distributed. Hopefully, Apple will catch on to soon produce a legal version.
