$1 TV Downloads For The Apple iPad?

on 02/10/2010, filed in Home > Apple

Could we be seeing $1 TV downloads on the iPad? Word is that Apple is going to begin a trial coinciding with the launch of the iPad, which will see the price of certain TV downloads being reduced to $1, from the current $1.99. It seems that some TV networks have already agreed to lower prices after months of negotiations despite having initially resisted the idea. Rumors are also going around that Apple is pursuing a monthly subscription package like a “best of TV” downloadable content, so it looks like things are going to get more interesting for the iPad. Could this be the iPad’s greatest selling point?

Apple Inc: Apple Inc was founded in 1976 by Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne as a computer company wich is often credited to have initiated personal computing. After a meteoric rise in the 80s, Apple had lost the personal computing battle against Microsoft and others in the 90s. But in the late 90s and early 2000s, the company came back to profitability by focusing on less products and started using industry-standard components. Apple's largest business is now in the smartphone space, with the iPhone representing more than half of the revenues and an even larger part of the profits.

iPad: the iPad is Apple's tablet computer. While not "invented" by Apple (the newton was arguably a PDA), the iPad has re-ignited the tablet format as it appeared at the right time, with the right hardware and apps. the first iPad was launched on April 2010. It was followed by the iPad 2 in March 2011 and a new iPad (gen 3) in 2012.
