In a move that should delight and amaze the Apple faithful in the United Kingdom and Canada, the company has announced that the iTunes Movie Store are now available in both countries. Both stores are launching with relatively anemic collections of titles, with the UK store debuting with 700 titles and the Canadian iteration launching with just over 1,200 moving pictures. Outright purchases will run you 10.99 Pounds in England and $19.99 Canadian for new releases,with library titles slotting in at 3.99 Pounds and $9.99 Canadian respectively. Rentals are also available for a 48 hour period in both countries, with Canadian leases running $4.99/$3.99 Canadian and UK rentals slotting in at 3.49 Pounds/2.49 Pounds. Great news but we all know that in the mighty world of online media sales, content is king. Will Apple have enough titles available to appeal to our friends to the North and East?
