I guess I have to back up a little more. On iTunes they had the pilot for The Nine as a free download. I got it. I finally got around to watching it this morning. I really want to see the rest.
I head over to iTunes to buy the season with a few mouse clicks. The search yields nothing. A quick google search tells me its been canceled. Fine, but where did the content go? Again, I do remember something about ABC and Apple not playing nice, ok. I can't move mountains. Okay, maybe I can buy it on Amazon, and as you can see, not there. Would Amazon unbox have it, is that a different search? Yes, it is. (That's stupid, the results should be side-by-side with big colored warning when you add to cart that this digital, but I digress) So, I find a notice that they will be available online only until 24 Sep 2007. And because there was no true wrap-up a DVD is unlikely. Ok, crap. Was it Apple who decided to pull the show because it was just taking up space on the servers? Or was it the deal with ABC that gummed it for me. Regardless, dear reader, of my poor taste, I am consumer that cannot, for all my efforts legally get a hold of the product I want to pay for. I want to be a consumer, I want to consume. Any suggestions?
This is so frustrating, bandwidth coming out of my ears, and cannot get a hold of it.
Update: My husband suggested Netflix and I love what the results indicate.
