We heard a while back that Apple and the movie studios were in negotiations over movie rentals,and there were mentions of iPod compatible movie files being shippedwith DVDs. Of course, to be able to legitimately import DVDs (withoutresorting to Handbrake)has been a pipe dream for consumers. But not for much longer, it wouldappear -- that is, if you're a buyer of a particular Fox TV animatedseries on DVD.
Tipster Stewart sent us a note saying he'd received a Family Guy (Blue Harvest) DVD ahead of the January 15th release (coincidence?)and that an iPod-compatible version, branded as a "Fox Digital Copyfile," was included on the disc. The only downside was that the disc"requires iTunes version 7.6." We were both sceptical and interested,naturally, and he was gracious enough to send over two shots of theoffending article, possibly lifting the lid on some of the iTunes news we can expect next Tuesday.
Checkthe shots out after the jump, keeping your eyes peeled for the(over-zealous) "serial number" that appears to be required to accessthis digital copy as with existing Fox titles.
