Available were hit shows "24" and "Prison Break," as well as new shows "Unan1mous" and "Stacked." The network is the last of the big four to sign on to the service, as ABC, CBS, and NBC all offer programming to iTunes users at a cost of $1.99 per download.

As well as offering current hits, Fox is also selling three classic shows, including "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Lost in Space." From FX, four programs have been added, including "The Shield," "Black. White.," "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia," and "30 Days." Programming from Fox's Speed and Fuel TV networks have also appeared, for a total of sixteen new series on the service.
