If you’re too cheap to spring for a $160-a-month cable package, but still want to catch Tony Soprano knocking off a few guys now and then, HBO now offers a slightly more affordable way to access its programming: iTunes. HBO and Apple jointly announced on Tuesday that many of the cable channel’s programs have arrived at the iTunes store for download.
Apple will initially offer six HBO series on iTunes, including The Sopranos, Deadwood, Rome, Sex and the City, Flight of the Conchords and The Wire. The former three series have episodes priced at $1.99 per episode, while the latter three cost $2.99 per episode. While full seasons are available, Apple won’t offer any discount for purchasing episodes in bulk.
