iTunes Videos Coming To Europe Spring 2007?
Despite increasing pressure from several European countries surrounding Apple's use of exclusive DRM technology in their iTunes Store and iPod, Forbes quotes Luxembourg's finance minister as saying that online video sales could be coming to Europe this spring.
Luxembourg has been Apple's base of operations for the iTunes Store in Europe due to the low VAT for online services.
Jeannot Krecke said Apple bosses have been in discussion 'for several months' with Luxembourg authorities. The deal is pending official confirmation from Apple, he noted.

Yes, the DRM "scandal" in the EU is going to become even more of an interesting story if Video content is added...

i cant wait for this, it will give Apple TV a use in the UK.
I just hope they have all the good films and TV shows on early. There is no point downloading it if you can see it on TV 1 hr later.
But if they put shows on UK iTunes when they come out in US that would be great, i hate waiting for the hit US shows in the UK
Desperate Housewives
Lost
24
Prison Break
Veronica Mars
Heroes
etc etc etc...

Apple thinks Europe is France, UK, Germany and perhaps Italy.
Half of Europe (even EU countries) doesn't have access to iTunes at all.
That is why this "coming to Europe" sounds ridiculus in my ears.
