Twentieth Century Fox said Monday that it would begin to offer television shows and movies for download from several websites owned by its sister company Fox Interactive Network. The offerings would first appear on the IGN-owned Direct2Drive site, and would be made available through MySpace.com in the near future. The downloads will cost $1.99 USD per television episode, or $19.99 USD per movie.
Expected to be offered on the service are shows such as "24" and "Prison Break," along with feature films like "X-Men: The Last Stand." Consumers would be able to view the videos on up to two PCs, as well as a single portable media device that uses Microsoft's Windows Media DRM technology. The service would not be compatible with Apple's iPod, as it does not support the video format.
