ABC/Disney Adds More iTunes Video Content

Walt Disney announced that they will be adding content from ESPN and ABC sports shows to Apple's iTunes Music Store.

Walt Disney said on Tuesday that the content will include condensed versions of all four U.S. Bowl Championship Series college football games this season, as well as content from ABC Entertainment, Touchstone Television, ABC Family, ABC News, Buena Vista Television, the Disney Channel and SOAPnet.

Disney reports that "America's Funniest Home Videos" as well as the 1970's "School House Rock" clips will be available on iTunes later this month.

This follows on the heels of Vongo's announcement for a $9.95/month unlimited movie download service. Vongo's has reportedly been in talks with Apple about providing support for Vongo on the Mac/iPod... but Apple has yet to express interest in it.

Of note, some speculation claims that Content providers such as Disney may make as much as a 70% split on Apple's $1.99 iTunes Video sales... bringing in up to $1.39 per purchased show, which is reported to be comparable to a DVD sale.
