MTV Expands iTunes Video Programming

MTV said that it will bring content from six of its networks to the iTunes Music Store Thursday. The company had made content from its Comedy Central network available earlier this year, and said "South Park" had sold over one million videos alone.

With the addition of the new networks from MTV, iTunes would now give access to over 150 shows. 35 million videos have been sold since the company began offering the service late last year. In addition, Apple announced that the iTunes Music Store now offers over 9,000 music videos and three million songs from major and independent labels.

"At MTV Networks, our brands create some of the most vibrant, entertaining and pop culture-defining programming today," said Nicholas Lehman, executive vice president, MTV Networks Digital Media. "We're excited to add more of our diverse programming to iTunes and to connect a broad digital audience with our bold entertainment content."

The new shows include Spike TV's "Blade: The Series," which the two-hour premiere episode would be given away for free until July 11;

"TNA: impact," the networks wrestling show, and police video footage program "Disorderly Conduct."

TV Land's "Sit Down Comedy with David Steinberg," Nick at Nite's "Fatherhood" and "Hi-Jinks," Logo's "Noah's Arc," "U.S. of ANT," and "Wisecrack," MTV's "Viva La Bam," and the N's "Beyond the Break" would also be included.

MTV Networks said that all shows would be available immediately for purchase.
