From the Things I Don't Understand file: NBC is selling video of Matt Lauer's interview with Prince William and Prince Harry on iTunes, even though the entire interview is available on MSNBC.com for free.
Now, before you say "nobody would buy that," please note that the $1.99 video is the number two TV video on iTunes right now, right behind video of the recent Miss Universe Pageant. Just kidding. Actually, number one right now is the latest episode of Starter Wife. The rest of the top 10: recent eps of The Office, Lil' Bush, The Starter Wife, Kyle XY, The Starter Wife, Hannah Montana, Stargate: SG-1, and Studio 60.
I guess if you buy it from iTunes you can keep it forever and watch it over and over and over.

I bought it. I think what you are missing is that most people who buy videos on iTunes do it so they can watch the video on their iPod during commutes or (in my case) air plane rides.

The interview on the website doesn't seem to be available in all regions, I tried viewing it here in Australia and the website wouldn't let me! Not a glitch, it told me it wasn't available in my region.
I'll probably buy it on iTunes too, it's no exactly gonna break the bank....
