The next time your grandmother downloads a copy of Monk from iTunes you can ask her to grab a classic episode of South Park for you while she’s at it. iTunes has just expanded it’s video programming, adding 14 new shows aimed squarely at a much younger audience than previous offerings.
Shows from Nickelodeon, MTV, and Comedy Central made their downloadable debuts this past friday. Individual programs are available for now standard $1.99.
Initial feedback to the new offerings has been mixed. A few comments on the site have questioned the pricing of the first two seasons of South Park, noting that the DVD’s are available from Amazon not much more. It’ll be interesting to see iTunes responds to this criticism or continues with a the flat pricing structure that has been so successful in their music store.
