Although it has been a little overlooked in all the hubbub surrounding yesterday’s Macworld Expo keynote announcements from Apple, 20th Century Fox movie studio has announced a new partnership with Apple that will enable purchases of selected Fox DVDs to get a digital copy of their purchase for use with iTunes. Dubbed “iTunes Digital Copy,” the feature will enable iTunes users to put the DVD content into their iTunes library and watch it on their computers, or transfer it to video-capable iPods, an iPhone, or the Apple TV.

Xbox Live Welcomes Family Guy to the Family
While the Xbox 360 is a gaming platform first and foremost, it may be gaining momentum as a platform for content distribution as well. Microsoft and Fox announced on Thursday that the latest show to offer downloads through Xbox Live will be Fox’s animated comedy, Family Guy.
The overlap between Family Guy’s audience and Xbox 360 gamers is significant. In 2006, Family Guy was the #1 primetime series for men between 18 and 34 years old, which also happens to be Xbox Live’s core demographic. “Family Guy is a perfect match for Xbox LIVE," said Jaimie McCabe, executive vice president of Fox’s video-on-demand division, in a statement. "The Xbox LIVE community will love having the Griffin family on this platform."
