Apple Movie Junkie

The good people over at Boxee have released an update today to their media center software. With this update you now have access to Pandora and RadioTime. With Pandora you can listen to your quickmix, your favorite stations and create new stations and with RadioTime lets you listen to over 100,000 radio stations from around the world. The new release also brings an enhanced version of the Boxee browser. It’s based on the XUL framework, which means the Boxee browser shares the same core architecture as any Mozilla browser (e.g Firefox). This version’s Boxee browser will display any full HTML page, and will try to play video on the page. For example, if you go to a Hulu RSS feed and click on an episode you will see the Hulu page for a few seconds and then the video will start playing in fullscreen.

For all of the details regarding the update head on over to the Boxee Blog.

This weeks 99p movie is When Harry Met Sally staring Billy crystal and Meg Ryan in a romantic comedy about a very unusual couple. It is also available to rent in HD on Apple TV for £1.99.

The Canadian iTunes store now includes a “Canadiana” section (more specifically a genre) that features the store’s Canadian content together, including TV shows and movies made in Canada.

Sorry I missed last week, I was on vacation in Texas, (beautiful weather, saw the live TRS show at SXSW). The Canadian iTunes store is diverging from the US store again for this week’s 99 cent movie rentals, although the rentals this week are still part of the continuing United Artists promotion. Our sources at Apple Canada are saying that only occasionally will the US and Canadian store overlap.  This week’s 99 cent movies are:

• The Good, The Bad and The Ugly
• The Man in the Iron Mask
• The Thomas Crown Affair

None are available in HD, unfortunately.

The E! reality series Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Season 3 is now available in HD at the iTunes Store and Apple TV.
