As an iPod Store It Has But One Challenge

If there is but one small negative, if you can call it a negative, it's that Apple Computer decided to make all of its songs in proprietary AAC format. What this means is that you can only play these songs either on your iPod or on your computer but nowhere else. Let's say you were to decide to switch to a different MP3 player from a different company, and these songs would become useless. However, the popularity of the iPod didn't get to the status that has without a good reason; people like them. That being the case it's likely that you won't be interested in switching to anything different. Despite the fact that iTunes was from the start created as an online store to service the iPod customers music requirements, the video iPod has spawned an entire new market for content that is downloadable. You can go to the iTunes store and it will provide unemployed users with access to numerous amounts of the latest movies and television programs. For a few dollars apiece you can get individual episodes. However the cost from episode to episode may very somewhat.
