Apple Computer and MTV Networks (a unit of Viacom) have inked a deal to make a wide range MTV Networks video content available for sale at Apple’s iTunes Music Store. Some MTV Networks programming debuted on iTunes in early 2006 (with South Park alone selling more than 1 million episodes); the companies now look to deepen the relationship and offer a deeper body o content which crosses more genre and demographic boundaries.

blinx Adds MTV Networks Content
blinx.tv earlier this week said they’d inked a deal with MTV Networks to make searchable through their video search engine programming from various MTV properties. The full slate of MTV programming should be available through the blinx Web site now.
Under the terms of the deal, the two companies said, video programming from MTV properties CMT, Comedy Central, Logo, MTV and VH1 will be searchable through via the blinx engine, which uses voice recognition technology to index and transcribe content. Examples of shows which are searchable include CMT’s “CMT Insider,” Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart,” Logo’s “Noah’s Arc,” MTV’s “Real World: Key West,” and VH1’s “Web Junk 20â€.
