Financial Times reports that Apple and Fox have signed a deal to launch an online video-on-demand service “that could change the way people pay for online film content.”
Part of the deal is rumored to force Fox to include Digital copies with DRM of a DVD movie that can be transferred to a computer and an iPhone. This way Consumers will not have to go through the trouble of ripping their Movies. And of course by not doing so will never be in possession of a DRM free digital copy they could put on P2P networks.
9to5 Mac claims that the prices will be very low (one or two USD) but they provide no sources for this claim.
Macrumors states that the service will cost 2.99/film for a 30-day rental.
The new service is set to launch at MacWorld Expo this January!
