Project Runway in iTunes...sort of

when will people start realizing that Apple has no control over international distribution of televised content and that if they did we'd see TV shos in all iTunes locales.

When is Apple going to realise that there is a market for this in Canada? We get American stations, we are exposed to all the same advertising, but we can't get any of the content in iTunes, it is very frustrating.

Yikes! I haven't watched TV "entertainment" for at least 10 years and this just reinforces why I gave it up.

Yeah!

Now I just have to get myself a US iTMS gift card so I can start buying them.

I got a press release from Bravo today announcing Project Runway and Inside the Actor's Studio will both be available February 28. Here's the text:

CURRENT & PAST SEASONS OF EMMY-NOMINATED "INSIDE THE ACTORS STUDIO" AND CURRENT SEASON-TO-DATE EPISODES OF "PROJECT RUNWAY" AVAILABLE ON FEBRUARY 28
