Get free FOX television downloads on iTunes
Starting next week FOX Broadcasting will offer the season premiere episodes of several of their televisions programs for free on iTunes.

You can currently download several of NBC's new fall shows from Amazon Unbox before they even air.

When I down load free programs I watch them on a 37" TV. It bugs the hell out of me that bloggers and news media don't seem to understand that everything you buy from iTunes Music Store is limited to an iPod for playing. Its extra horrible that that a tech blog would write such nonsense.
