In what seems to me like a pretty good deal (time for money), Lonesome Dove — the 1989 mini-series with Robert Duvall and Tommy Lee Jones — is available from iTunes for $9.99. That’s more than 6 hours of great drama for your iPod or Mac — two long domestic airplane rides.
Roots, by example, is $34.99.
BTW, downloading over 4GB of videos (Lonesome Dove) is veeeeerrrrrry slow.
Thanks for the tip!
