FYI, apparently NBC Universal is moving the shows to be available online here:


According to this, NBC Universal and News Corporation are pumping $100 million into the iTunes rival where all content will go through their own branded player.


Their beta is supposed to start in October.

I can't imagine they're going to support OSX, and even if they do, $5 an episode is still ridiculously high.  Its almost as if they view online distribution of the content via the internet as a dangerous rival to their "real" distribution channel and are trying to kill it.
