Apple Looking To get In On Movie Rentals Online

In the near future Apple is planning on getting in on the online movie rental business by allowing customers to download movies from it's I-Tunes store for a fee. Apple already has deals with all the major studios including Disney and Fox. You will be able to rent a movie for about $3.99 for newer titles and $2.99 for older titles where in which you will have 24 hours to view it. You will be able to watch the movies from a wide screen tv, a computer, or an I-pod. The large selection of movies that they will be able to offer and the convenience is expected to be the attraction to the consumer. Some critics however do not like the 24 hour time limit you will have to watch the movie once you download it and other critics are expressing that the cost of $3.99 per title might be a little high.
