MGM Joins the iTunes Party

iTunes Store customers can now watch “Dances With Wolves, “Rocky,” and dozen of other classics on their iPods.

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios Inc. (MGM) and Apple announced a new partnership that lets people purchase dozens of MGM feature films from the iTunes Store, with many costing $9.99 each.

iPodders are starting to discover that while the movies look great on iPod screens, they’re less impressive when connected to televisions; “near-DVD” quality is probably a stretch. But the iTunes Store is still the easiest way to download movies you can take anywhere.
