An iPod Misstep?
In the last few days, Apple and Audible.com announced a new service in conjunction with the National Football League. Recordings in MP3 format of the audio portion of NFL games will be available for download and purchase the morning after a game has been played. Let me repeat, an audio recording of NFL will be available for purchase.
I can not imagine anyone but the most rapid fan paying for and storing the audio portion of a game. We're not talking a TV feed, you can do that already with your TiVo or simply tape it via VHS. The audio portion only. I'll be interested to see sales figures during the playoffs and the sales rank compared to some of the audiobooks available on Audible's site.
And you thought I was going to talk about the recently introduced mini Shuffle iPod. That's another post.
