Variety has just posted a story about the negotiations between Hollywood executives and Apple CEO Steve Jobs about the rumored iTunes Movie Store.
Movie executives are anxious to release this service due to the fear that movie piracy may take a further toll on Hollywood's profits. Steve Jobs is insisting that all movies have a flat rate fee of $9.99, as opposed to the suggest tiered model that Hollywood is suggesting.
On March 14th, Apple made its first full-lenth TV movie feature available on the iTunes Music Store at $9.99 USD.

""He came in with a lot of bravado and said, 'We set our mind to what we were going to do in the music business and revolutionized it, and now we want to do the same thing with film," recalls one studio person close to the talks for movie downloads.
Also complicating the deals: The studios are working out terms with a host of other distributors, including Amazon, Movielink and BitTorrent, in part to make sure that one company does not dominate. It seems that none of the studios wants to be first in making a deal with Apple." |
Where will this go? Who knows; But we will know for sure in the next coming months when Apple is ready to make the announcement.
