iTunes shows up with 1000 rentals, two months behind schedule

iTunes iconChris Breen, Dan P and Brian Chen have been on Apple’s case for the past two months, all because Jobs promised to have thousand movies available for rental on the iTunes Store by the end of February and didn’t deliver.

Sheesh! You’d think they’d cut them some slack, what with them being Apple fanboys to their very core (don’t let them tell you any different). Pestered by the nagging, apparently, Apple has finally delivered on their commitment “63 days after the promise deadline”, as Chris so helpfully points out.

A quick search of available rentals on the iTunes Store now reveals that there are just a sliver over a thousand titles now, all queued up and ready to go. And this, my dear friends, brings a heroic end to *The Saga of the Missing Rentals*. It’s a story that will surely be immortalized in history texts and remembered for generations to come.
