Apple has today added MGM and its United Artists sublabel to its wonderful iTunes store, open iTunes and browse the new movies that have been added, the trailers for Rocky and Ronin make you want to buy (or at least SEE) them right away.
Does Apple iTunes make its own trailers? or have creative control? Something about their iTunes trailers seems so much better than your average trailers that you see on Network TV or other sales outlets.
Adding MGM to iTunes Movie Library brings iTunes Movie library to 500 movies, it also brings iTunes onboard movie studios up to 2.5 out of the Big 6.
The Big 6 Movie Companies are:
Fox
Paramount
Sony
NBC
Time Warner
Buena Vista

Apple of course began its catalog with Buena Vista (Disney’s) Library, that was followed by Paramounts hefty catalog around January, and today added MGM, which is a subsidary of the massive Sony studio.
Let’s assume that Sony/MGM see unparalled sales from the iTunes store starting today, it’d be logical for Sony to put the rest of its catalog up on iTunes (which includes Columbia, Tristar, Sony animation and more) in the coming months.
If that comes true, we’ve then three of the big six movie studios on board, and Fox, NBC and Time Warner will surely have to come on board too before the 2007 Holiday Season.

Here comes an amazing year for movies on iTunes, on your iMac, on your iPod, and on your TV!
