Don't know about you, but I'm pretty underwhelmed by Apple's entry into the let's-beat-Netflix sweepstakes. If you download the latest version of iTunes (available in Windows and Mac formats), you'll discover that, after yesterday's big announcements at the Mac World convention, Apple is now renting movies on its iTunes Music Store. But it all looked lame to me. Virtually none of the titles jumped out at me. I don't know ... maybe you differ? I like the idea; I just can't applaud the execution. At least not now.

I'm with you. I pay about $10/mo. to Netflix for two-at-a-time unlimited rentals AND they just announced that their "Watch Now" movies-on-demand service is now unlimited. Granted, the on-demand library is a lot more limited, but still. And $3.99 a piece at iTunes? Thanks but no thanks.

You might as well go to your local Hollywood Video (or, God forbid, Blockbuster) for that price. Geez
