Apple Greatly Increases iTunes HD Movie Selection

November 11, 2009 :: Posted by - SoSly :: Category - News

Apple added a large amount of HD movies to iTunes this morning with little fanfare, according to MacWorld. There now are hundreds of new and classic movies available for rent or purchase in HD.

Headlining iTunes Store’s newly-stocked HD shelves are Wall-E, a pre-order for Star Trek (which was only available in SD until now), Hero, The Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy, Knowing, Bolt, and many more. Plenty of classics have arrived in HD as well, including both Kill Bill movies, Short Circuit, Zoolander, No Country for Old Men, and what is probably my favorite B-budget sci-fi film: Cube.

MacWorld notes that most HD movies are available for purchase for $20 with few exceptions. At only 720p some of these movies especially the older ones should be pricing accordingly.

Probably will not sound like a totally unexpected news but according to the opinion of the big companies to Purchase In-App is a real failure.

Was to be expected because usually users who purchase an application are not very responsive to spend more money to get them to function in more than a level pack add-on. The AppStore has accustomed us well, at best, with regular updates and free (read Pocket God) by which the Purchase In-App can not reach that level of satisfaction necessary to motivate developers.

Pangea Software, with one million copies sold in riddles, said that only 20-25 people a day using the in-app purchase and expectations were much larger.

Have you been using the in-app purchase feature.
