I've mistakenly relied upon iTunes to catch Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis.

They posted the new episodes of the season right on time: the next day.

Then it was a 2 week wait before they posted the next episodes, which really sucked. I turned to Amazon Unbox and used their services for those episodes, but they are twice the filesize (800+ mb) of iTunes formats, which means, twice the download times (about 3 hours per episode on my iNtArWeB connection).

Anyway, I went again to iTunes to get Friday's episodes. They didn't have SG-1's but did have Atlantis - or so I was led to believe. I went to Amazon and downloaded SG-1's episode.

I went to iTunes today to get the Atlantis episode and bought and downloaded it. Lo and behold, it was the SG-1 episode I bought from Amazon yesterday. It had the wrong title and was with the wrong show.

iTunes sucks. Amazon Unbox ftw. Well, partial win anyway.

i watch my tv shows on tv

I would if I got SciFi on my TV. :saddowns:

Perhaps you should e-mail them about it rather than ***** about it? Chances are they can do more for you than we could. I have heard some positive stories about addressing the iTunes store with errors. Or you know... BitTorrent.

Yeah. I use Bit Torrent like TiVo. I really, shouldn't, but hey- it nets me the same thing with out expensive hardware. That and I don't like watching things on the TV.

what kind of s**t cable company are you with if they don't give you sci-fi

I record mine using MythTV and use BitTorrent for those I can't record.

I got a dual tuner TV card in my PC. I would die without it. :p

I saw one of them right, they use them on the flinstones huh?

Haha! Who pays for TV shows?

Chances are it's Sci-Fi's fault, not Apple's.

I was thinking of buying some episodes of Hill Street Blues off of iTunes, actually.

IIRC, Isn't Amazon unbox heavily DRMed?

Just give me straight DVD where I have an actual hardcopy of the content instead of just a file.

I thought that initially except Amazon has the episodes posted the next day.



Us losers who can't afford cable or satellite, and don't have easy access to either.

Bittorrent wins for tv.

I need a better TV tuner antennae.
