Experimental Film

Now that iTunes supports video I've started to peruse through the library of music videos they have to offer. Oh sure, they've been offering the ability to view music videos for a long time, but now they're actually allowing you to purchase some!

One video I came across was They Might Be Giants' "Experimental Film." If you haven't seen this video, I suggest downloading the latest version of iTunes and clicking this link.

Experimental Film
They Might Be Giants
Genre: Alternative
Release Date: 1/10/05

P.S. Fans of Homestar Runner will get a kick out of this.

Wait.... what?! I read about the new iTunes update and thought they made it pretty clear that you COULDN'T buy or view music videos in the player yet. (unless you're streaming it from the music store). What the hell? All I've wanted since iTunes started is to make my own personal MTV. Is that too much to ask??

So far I haven't seen a whole lot of "music" video for sale. A few singels are being offered with "bonus videos" as part of the single.

For example, Gorillaz - Feel Good Inc. The videos aren't music videos. Rather, they're 60 second short animations. Pretty cool, as the single only costs $.99 and the videos come with it.

I also saw Dave Matthews Band - Stand Up with a bonus video for Stand Up as well as a digital booklet.
