The article discusses how the chief executive for NBC pulled TV episodes from iTunes because the network wasn't making
enough money from the online store and Steve Jobs refused to up the prices.
I don't really understand this, considering the revenue that NBC made would have been non-existent without iTunes. Though, I suppose, if NBC believes that the users buying their shows would be willing to pay more, than the prices should go up. Unfortunately, Steve Jobs wants to keep the strict fixed-prices on the iTunes shows - and who's to say he should do differently? I personally think the fixed-pricing system is more desirable to consumers (or at least to me), which is probably why Steve Jobs wants to stick with it.
Oh well, because as the article states, Canadians couldn't purchase NBC's shows anyways:
