Finally, there has been some movement on movies appearing on the UK iTunes store. Both Ben and I have ranted on the podcast about how stupid it is that the States can have them and yet we, over here, can’t.
According to various reports Apple has signed new contracts with Fox, Disney, Warner Bros and Paramount. Lionsgate and MGM are expected to sign soon.
The average price of buying a film will be £13 with prices ranging from as little as £6 and going all the way up to £25.
Sadly, none of the reports cite an actual date but we’re hoping that some news is better than no news.
Come on Steve, sort it out! We’re in need of the films, whats the big hold up?
At least June 9th is only a week or so away and then we’ll get something shiny and new to take our minds off it…
Hang on a minute, has a Tuesday been and gone without Apple releasing anything? What’s going? I feel empty….
Luckily, we’ve heard rumours that there are going to be updates to the iMac and Mac Mini. They will be getting a little speed bump with some new processors.
Also, a quick note to let everyone know that the latest podcast is out and available to download from iTunes or the iCreate website. Why not log in to iTunes and write a review and let us know what you think…
It’s not just Macs and iLife down here in iCreate-land.
We’re also lucky enough to check out some of the great iTunes events held fairly regularly in London. 
Last week, Jimmy and I hopped on a train to the capital’s Air Studios in Hampstead where we caught an intimate show recorded for iTunes Live: London Sessions. Featuring the sultry vocals of Dawn Kinnard, effortlessly cool folk-rock from Jason Mraz and the powerful simplicity of Canada’s Ron Sexsmith, it was certainly a night to be remembered.
Located in the scenic enclosure that is Lyndhurst Hall which has played host to recording sessions from such luminaries as Coldplay, Madonna and George Michael, competition winners and assorted press (the only people with access to the show) stood mere feet from the performing artists. Bathed in ethereal light and with tunes stripped down to simply vocals, piano and guitar, all three artists enjoyed a substantial share of the stage and even spent time singing together, with Americans Mraz and Kinnard performing a delightful duet.There were special guests aplenty too with Nick Lowe and James Morrison gracing the stage to perform alongside Ron Sexsmith and Jason Mraz respectively.
The performances are set to be released exclusively on iTunes in March. For more information and an access all areas sneak peak of the show, featuring interviews and detailed reviews, check out the upcoming iCreate podcast on iTunes or at www.icreatemagazine.com/podcasts For more information on iTunes Live visit www.ituneslive.co.uk
