iTunes: Canadian TV Store debuts

FINALLY! Too bad we never got a chance at buying The Office and sticking it on our Video iPods... Now I guess we'll have to put Corner Gas on our iPod touches.

We're all used to Apple treating us as if we didn't exist, and frankly, I'd rather they continue to do so rather than switch to insulting us with empty cursory gestures like this. Essentially all content in Canada, minus a few non-notable exceptions here and there, comes from the US. I would prefer that Apple took down the Canadian iTunes Store altogether and simply opened up the US store to purchases from the "northern states".

No Corner Gas love for the US?

Well not much to choose from now, hopefully they will add more shows in the coming weeks. I'm looking forward to Trailer Park Boys on iTunes.

This is kind of an embarrassment, if you ask me. Four shows from CBC? Granted I didn't know they had four shows but still...

I just hope that "Regenesis" gets added once it starts airing again. After all, it is the greatest canadian show EVER!

"The pickings are a little bit slim at the moment. NBC seems to be missing-in-action..."

I'm guessing this was an attempt at humour - as opposed to a serious observation. Surely no one in the Mac news business has missed the fact that NBC bailed officially on December 1 after several months of news reports on the subject.

Pretty slim pickings, to be sure.

Is there a preview mode for TV shows?

No Royal Canadian Air Farce? That's total poo.

at least we get south park twice!
