News would be if "another" studio is more then Disney since we almost KNOW they are a part of this.

Well, Disney is guarenteed. So probably all the studios who already allow downloads and 20th Century Fox (I wish Universal, but doubt it, same with WB)

I guess the only question now is at what resolution?
and how will this resolution relate if they allow it to be transfer to ipod/iphone.. meaning do they go the lowest common denominator or mutliple versions?
I think them and Amazon showed the studios that they can play safe with these guys and get almost no rentals/sales or go with apple and see better numbers.

Any time now, the New York Times will be contacted by Apple legal and offered money to shut down in order to prevent the publishing of additional spoilers prior to MW events.

Good question... I was wondering about that myself. I guess we'll find out soon enough.
I'm stoked about this.
