'Idol' Partners With iTunes

NEW YORK American Idol has partnered with Apple to allow fans to purchase all of the top 24 semifinalist performances exclusively on the iTunes store.

Apple’s iTunes now becomes Idol’s exclusive online download provider and the iPod becomes the official MP3 player/digital music device, while the iPhone becomes the series’ official handset. Apple iTunes is the fourth official integration partner in Idol, joining Coke, Ford and Cingular. It is the first time an on-air integration partner has been added since the second season of the nation’s most-watched show.
