To begin with all forms of entertainment are moving to the internet. Music was first and now movies and TV are following. These industries are all bent out of shape about pirating yet, instead of taking advantage of the new medium and passing on the savings that they clearly are able to realize in not having to make and distribute dvds, they choose to try and squeeze every last penny out of the consumer. Why should I pay the same price as a dvd for a lower quality compressed movie that saves the distribution company money when I download it (instead of renting the disc)? Worse... Apple has the nerve to price TV shows that the networks willingly make available for free on line at a higher price (per minute) than a Hollywood blockbuster. Their greed is going to drive people to seek alternatives such as pirating or jailbreak apps that allow one to access this stuff.
