Apple unveils MacBook Air and iTunes movie rentals
16/01/2008 by swordfish.
Apple on Tuesday launched an aluminium-clad laptop, the MacBook Air, just three-quarters of an inch thick, seeking to bring a new computer to market with the same cachet as its iPod and iPhone devices.
Apple also said it would let people rent films over the web with upgrades to its iTunes online media store, a technological challenge to a movie industry still largely focused on DVD’s.
Shares of movie rental firms Netflix and Blockbuster fell sharply in response, and Apple’s own stock lost 5.5 percent since the announcements were widely expected and chief executive Steve Jobs failed to conjure up any big surprises.
