Free iTunes TV Show Page

Want to beef up on content for your iPod Video but don’t have a lot of money?

Lately the iTunes Store (US) has been full of free videos. A common trend has been for networks to offer a series pilot for free in hopes of getting you hooked on the show. Not a bad idea - especially since it worked on me. I downloaded Spike TV’s free pilot for Blade and now have a TiVo Season pass for the show. I love checking out all the free TV show downloads in iTunes. The only problem is that finding all these free videos can be time consuming and a little challenging.

In an effort to make browsing for free video content on iTunes a little easier Apple created a Free TV Shows Downloads page (iTunes link) last week. When I was writing this blog entry there were currently 12 free TV shows offered.

But this free TV Show download page unfortunately isn’t the one stop shop it should be. For some reason free downloads for TV shows like Passions and Blade weren’t included on this “free” page. Hopefully Apple will make an all-inclusive free download page soon, but until then, this partial page will have to do.

USA only!!?? Part of the reason why Apple doesn’t have TV in other countries are copyright stuff with the networks. Basically the other countries have other laws. Many people forget that the Internet is local… just local for those using it. So although you can instantly get something say form UK to USA, you technically are not there. And since most Media is marketed locally, you have to get the rights on ALL those nations… not the easiest thing in the world thanks to lawyers and CEOs… yes it’s hard to do, but come on Apple, get the networks to open it up for the rest of the world!

Unfortunately this page only shows the featured free downloads — there are a lot more than just those. For all the free iTunes downloads check out itsfreedownloads.com — you can even keep up-to-date via RSS & email.
