Showtime to Offer Downloads on ITunes
Showtime became the latest TV network to stake out a corner in Apple Computer Inc.’s iTunes Music store, offering downloads of its original productions, including “Sleeper Cell” and “Weeds.”
Showtime Networks Inc., a unit of CBS Corp., is hoping to raise its profile by offering its programs to consumers who do not subscribe to the premium pay channel.
The network joins Walt Disney Co. and NBC Universal by offering its shows for download on iTunes for $1.99 an episode.
