Video killed the radio star.
It has now become clear what Apple's intentions were when they integrated Quicktime video support into iTunes yesterday. Via the online music store, Apple are bundling music videos in with some singles and albums at a cost of 79p, the same as the music track. Though interestingly, there is no sort of DRM technology built into the files, meaning they can be shared with anyone. The videos are of decent quality: MPEG-4 video, 480 x 360 pixels, 30 fps and a data rate of 1648.64 kbits/sec making the 3min 48sec video I downloaded 45MB in size. However, the videos cannot be bought separately.
It's now only a matter of time before Apple either release an iPod video or provide a download to add support to the existing iPod photos. Although, rumour has it that the iPod photo looks set to become the standard iPod soon, replacing the existing 20GB iPod in the lineup and losing the photo tag.
