At the moment, at least, NBC shows are $1.99 on Unbox. It'll be interesting to see what happens come the end of September when the new season starts - will NBC try to jack up the price of new shows, thus driving away the handful of Unbox users that actually exist?

It seems as though there is a large number of people willing to pay the iTunes store price for TV shows. However, I don't think there will be large group of people willing to pay more than that (and even fewer who will pay the totally out of control Unbox price). Medialoper also had a great post about this. http://www.medialoper.com/hot-topics/itunes/nbcs-bad-move/ -N I totally agree wit this post, what NBC is doing here is shooting themselves in the foot.
