Apple brings iPods into the living room with film download service

APPLE last night unveiled a new film download service — plus a device which will make it compatible with TV sets.

The new gadget — codenamed the iTV — will wirelessly transmit iTunes music, film, TV and video content from users’ computers to their flat-screen televisions.

Giving a sneak preview of the box before its 2007 launch, Apple chief executive Steve Jobs said it would complete the story by bringing Apple into the living room.
