iTunes Video Rentals on The Cheap and on the Go

This it iPhone news; I promise.

There was an update to iTunes 7.6.1 this week for those of you that weren’t paying attention.  This update was mostly Apple TV related, which is neither here nor there.  Accompanying the update release, was a tasty tidbit about 99 cent iTunes movie rentals.

Every Thursday, Apple will release one move for 99 cents, that’s right, it will be less than a buck.  The movie will be a available for the current week.  These movies can of course be synced with your iPhone and taken on the road.

This week, the 99 cent iTunes movie is The Hours (Warning - iTunes link).  A movie rental for the price of a tune isn’t so bad, especially if you are a commuter or someone else with the need for pocket entertainment.

It would appear that Apple is very serious about the rental business, and this sale movie will be a great way to spur business.  I, of course, will be updating you every Thursday on the weekly sale movie as long as Apple is willing to give it to us.

    I noticed Kroger has a machine with $1 movie rentals. It seems the market is moving towards this number.
