iTunes Movies is Apple's service for all those users who want to rent or buy movies through the iTunes application to be able to watch them on any of the devices associated with the same ID, whether it's Apple TV, iPhone, iPad ... This service is not available worldwide, but there are more and more countries where Apple is expanding it. This service first hit the American market 10 years ago today, and to celebrate, the Cupertino-based company has lowered the price of many of its films to $ 10 in the United States alone and today only.

Not all production companies have wanted to celebrate the birthday of iTunes Movies, since we will only be able to download movies from Warner Bros, Universal, Paramount, Lionsgate and Sony Pictures. Most of the films these producers available at $ 9,99. Some of the movies that are available for that price are Pacific Rim, The Hunger Games, No Country for Old Men… This promotion is geographically limited to the United States, so if you have an American account you may be able to take advantage of this offer.
It was Steve Jobs himself who announced the arrival of iTunes Movies in the keynote he held in 2006, shortly before the launch of the iPhone. Apple started with a catalog of 75 Disney movies. Currently, as we can see on Apple's website, iTunes Movies has a catalog of more than 85.000 movies, a catalog that the company is expanding year after year.
iTunes Movies was one of the most important bets of the company in China, when it began to offer its services and sell its terminals through its own stores. But a few months ago, the censorship department of the eastern country completely closed this service together with the iBooks Store, claiming that the available content was not appropriate for its citizens. Despite repeated trips to the country by Tim Cook, he has failed to address this issue, and Apple's movie and book service continues to produce no revenue in China.
I know that my comment has nothing to do with it, but I find it curious that everything goes down in price except for the iPod touch, the price of $ 400 for 128 GB is still intact, I wonder what will happen to the iPod sector? Will there be any new renovations? Will he die? I don't know about you, but for me an iPod is better than listening to radios, I have like 5 thousand songs that I listen to in random mode all the time and I don't need to be paying subscriptions, and so I don't take up space on my phone with music, it's free for more photos. videos etc I really would like to see a last great renovation of the iPod touch
