Does anyone know if the episodes will be available individually for purchase through iTunes in HD? In seasons? I hope so!

Legend of Korra and Spongebob appear to be on iTunes; I 'd be surprised if TMNT wasn't.

Also, I bet Netflix streaming will have them once the season is finished.

Are they available right when the episode actually airs on TV? How long does it take?

For $29.99 (HD) $24.99 (SD) you basically get a season 1 pass that will allow you to get all of the episodes from season one right as they are released.

well since I do not have cable I decided to buy the HD season pass!!! this is awesome

That is only $1.15 per 1080P episode!!! do it guys

(26 episodes + freebies like trailers and behind the scenes stuff)

*edit* okay, i bought it and the quality is REALLY good for the 'free' episodes currently available. This is the first time i've bought a season pass on iTunes, hope I don't end up regretting it!

I hope this will include EVERY season 1 episode. It says it is "volume 1" and doesn't directly specify how many episodes it will contain. If they split season 1 into multiple volumes i will not be happy

Generally that kind of crap isn't pulled with iTunes releases; you generally release the entire season under one title. It's probably just a typo.

If I had a Blu-Ray burner I'd consider buying the eps and burning them to Blu (since there probably isn't much chance of an official release). Maybe I'll shell out a hundred bucks or so and buy one sometime soon.

I've never bought any videos from iTunes, so my question is for those that have, can you burn these to DVD? Also can you play them on other media players besides iTunes? Any DRM on them?

There's a way to remove DRM. In my eyes it's perfectly legal to remove the DRM for the purpose of burning them to DVD for your personal use. DRM is only there so you can't upload it to file hosting sites for other people to download.

*Zulithe* · 09-18-2012, 04:08 PM

There are ways to burn them... it involves removing the DRM though, but most people agree that you are within your rights to do so even if it is not a supported avenue. Just don't share the files.

also, you do know that itunes purchases are 'in the cloud' right, so you can stream them and redownload them anytime, backing them up is not really needed unless you have concerns about bandwidth caps or transfer times being a problem

Moonlight1102 · 09-18-2012, 07:20 PM

Awesome. I need to save up for a 30 dollar iTunes giftcard so I can buy the whole season pass in HD.

*Kendamu* · 09-18-2012, 09:36 PM

I have the season pass for Amazon Instant Video. You get a discount on each episode and you're automatically billed per episode as it's released rather than pying one lump sum.

I'm considering double-dipping on the iTunes season, though, as Amazon Instant Video isn't available on iPhone and I'd like to have them on there so I can watch episodes when taking a break from training or during my lunch break or something.

Brockon21 · 09-18-2012, 10:11 PM

Is there any way of knowing for sure if this will be the whole season in volume 1? If it can be confirmed, I'm totally getting the season pass without delay!

Awesome find! Thank you!

I bought the season pass and got a confirmation email. At the bottom of the email it reads:

Note: Reruns, episodes that have previously been aired and made available for download, will not be resent

That makes me feel like they mean from older seasons of the Turtles, not the new turtles. What do you think?

That means that if episode 1 airs again, it won't be downloaded to your iTunes again and you won't be charged.

Brockon21 · 09-22-2012, 11:57 AM

Ok. So we do own the episode permanently, then...and the whole season..? And we can download he video from our iTunes account as many times as we want?

Yep. You buy it, you keep it forever. You can download it to other devices if they're not already on there.

Awesome! Thanks SkeletonMan!

I have looked into the itunes media folder and the episodes are in a folder labeled "season 1" so im guessing what they mean by volume 1 is season 1.. also in the list of videos in the store the bonus content numbers start at 101. so im thinking there will be bonus content for all the season's episodes. plus why would the season pass be so much if it was only going to be 13 episodes?
