Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s download the last version for ipod

'This potentially could be the time that portable video kicks off in a mainstream way,' said Adam Vaughan, managing editor of Stuff magazine.Īpple, which has sold more than 50m iPods in five years, will hope it can use its status as market leader in digital music to steal a march on rivals and become the number one destination for online films. Downloads will cost as little as $9.99 (£5.30), and viewers will be able to watch their purchases on an iPod, computer screen or stream them to a TV.

The new download service, which will initially be available in America but is expected to roll out in Britain next year, will offer new movies as well as classics such as Shakespeare in Love, The English Patient and Enemy of the State. 'We're making available over 75 films online, and we're going to be adding more every week and every month, including the year's most popular movies, Pirates of the Caribbean 2 and Cars.' Mr Jobs also unveiled a forthcoming device called iTV that will be able to transmit video from a computer to a living-room television screen. 'Today we're starting out with films from Walt Disney Pictures, Pixar, Touchstone and Miramax films,' Mr Jobs said at the company headquarters in California. Steve Jobs, Apple's chief executive, put an end to months of rumours about its interest in movie downloads by announcing deals with the Hollywood studios owned by Disney, of which he is a director.
