'I'm going to take over your whooooole life!'

Well, the NCAA tournament is winding to a close, which means that it must be just about time for baseball season. And because Steve Jobs is eager to take over your whole life, including your sports-watching experiences, you're going to be able to get your MLB fix at the iTunes Store this season. Apple will be selling 25-minute daily recaps of the season for $1.99 (or $7.99 for a month's worth) and two featured full-length games each week, also for $1.99 (or $19.99 for a "season pass"). A selection of "classic" baseball games will be sold as well. If you want to check it out, there's a 2007 season preview being offered for free.

So now you will be able to download a baseball game onto your MacBook, stream it to your AppleTV, and then call your friends on your iPhone (June 11th, baby!) to whine about A-Rod.

paying for something twice???
by tedwardwright March 30, 2007 8:12 AM PDT
why would you pay for a 25 minute re-cap when you can get that three times a
day on sportscenter, and the 2 featured games will most likely be televised on
espn or any of your other basic cable stations.....however, i will fork over $600
for the iphone, I CAN'T WAIT!!!
