Direct movie downloads headed to iPhone?

25 May 2009 21:58 by Andre "DVDBack23" Yoskowitz | 2 comments

Direct movie downloads headed to iPhone? According to a report over at Open Salon, the upcoming Apple iPhone 3.0 firmware update is expected to hit the phone next month, and with it will come direct downloads of movies and TV shows, eliminating the need for a PC with iTunes.

Alleged screenshots (posted at the end of the article) seem to show direct links to “iTunes Movies,” “iTunes TV,” and “iTunes Movie Rentals.” All movies and episodes are separated by genre.

Apple has not confirmed or denied the rumor.

Currently iPhone/iPod Touch owners can only directly download podcasts.

We will keep you updated.
