Why do people need tv shows on their iPod? I guess you might want to watch your tv through iTunes on the computer; however, why would you want to sit in front of your computer instead of your tv (which is probably a bit larger). Another disadvantage is no HighDef. Isn't this supposed be the era of high video quality? Oh well, here are some of the programs added to iTunes.

The idea that this may potentially lead to portable DVRs and IP TV is exciting though!
