You can no longer pay $2 for an episode of "The Office" or other NBC shows to play in iTunes or on your iPod, now that NBC Universal has officially pulled its programming from Apple's iTunes store. The company was expected to do this; it refused to renew its contract with Apple earlier this year.
NBC Universal also instructed its recording artists to pullfull-length songs from their MySpace pages and replace them with90-second samples.
ITunes and MySpace are very different sites, yet both had access to NBC Universal's content restricted at approximately the same time. Could there be a company-wise edict in place at NBC Universal to cut online intermediaries out of the action?
