Here's something strange: it seems that all Star Trek TV shows have been pulled from the iTunes Store (US). Apple Gazette identified the omission this morning, and darned if we can find them. The movies are still in place, however.

Yep, this is old news. The Star Trek TV shows were pulled on Friday. StarTrek.com says "Due to technical reasons, Star Trek and Star Trek: Enterprise are temporarily unavailable from the iTunes Store. We will announce any developments as they happen."

Uh-oh! Looks like all the nerds over 35 won't be buying iPods...

It's amazing to me that we live in a day and age when someone calls news from Friday "old news" when it's posted less than 48 hours later.

After somebody gets this figured out, perhaps they can investigate why the heck the Zappa Family Trust pulled all of Frank Zappa's albums.
The main page the iTMS launched about a year ago or so to showcase his stuff (iTMS link) is still there, but all it displays are a compilation thing done mostly by kis kids and one by an orchestra covering F.Z.'s stuff.
I'm not kidding about the investigation. I did some of my own research, and haven't found any explanation for this.

Crap...my nicely coded HTML link didn't show up.
Link to Zappa's iTMS page:

QUESTION to the powers-that-be here:
Is there a page anywhere within the Weblogs, Inc. Network that details what manner of formatting may be used in the comments fields, if any? I looked, and can't find any info on this.
It seems rather anachronistic that in this day and age at least SOME formatting isn't enabled for participants here, even if only Bold, Italic, and Underline.

They may have been pulled because some of the episodes that were on the store were the 'remastered' versions and some weren't - maybe they want to replace the unremastered versions with remastered ones, or they'll have an 'untouched' ST show secgion and a 'remastered' section.

El Payo -
That makes sense...but if that's so...why was Enterprise removed too?

Haha on the Tholian Web comment at the end there.
Geek certifications:
-I'm under 18
-I get the joke not only from the Enterprise episode, "In a mirror, Darkly"...
-but from the original series episode, "The Tholian Web", too

Things had been crapping out on Enterprise all of the end of last week. To get any episodes, I had to follow a circuitous route. Still, I was able to get them until just yesterday. Weird.

I agree phosphor. I've looked for reasons why no FZ in ITMS but nothing on the web. I hope his catalog is available from Apple Corps when they come out with their own MP3 player.
