God bless the folks who have time to read application code. We do a lot of digging in our daily pursuit of tech news, but rooting around deeply in an app is a job unto itself. Evan DeBiase of The Evan Series blog found the following bit of code in the iTunes 7.5 upgrade:
rental-content
rental-bag
rbsync
source-rental-info
dest-rental-info
getvodaccountselectionlist
GET VOD ACCOUNT SELECTION LIST
supportsRentals
Rental? Whaa? Rumors have been floating about an Apple plan to implement a video rental system via iTunes for over a year now. Download Squad also notes that a user found a way to report problems with video rentals in a previous build of the software way back in September.
But Apple made no mention of the service when 7.5 released; it would have coincided perfectly with the new video-friendly Nanos.
