Apple began selling movies on the iTunes Store,A record of 125,000 downloads in one weekWe achieved sales of one million dollars in a short period of time, but what is the picture quality at the very bottom?

So, there was a comparative site so I will introduce it. Please do not see one hundred pictures, please check with your eyes.

It is also difficult if asked if the picture quality is suitable for the price. The old work is about 9.70 dollars and about 1170 yen. The price of rental DVD overseas is from 2 dollars to 4 dollars, from 230 yen to 460 yen in the case of the old work. In other words, the price is high and the picture quality is bad ... .... It might be good if you can buy it even if you do not go out or cooperate with an iPod, or if you feel the merit in that point .... Still, it takes about 1 hour to download in the environment of people who compares image quality, so if it is less than an hour for round-trip and purchase, it will be said that you went to rent to the neighborhood is earlier. However, overseas there are places in the neighborhood where there are no rental shops at all, so it is quite true that they are receiving it, so it may be received.

Also, iTunes movie distribution has not yet been done in Japan, but when will it be realized?
