The all-conquering iTunes Music Store looks to be morphing into a multimedia download shop.
The latest update, which Apple Computer released earlier this week, reveals that the song shop may be turning into a video vendor.
The new iteration of iTunes comes with new features for the music store and updated QuickTime video support, leading to speculation that the update is paving the way for Apple to sell music videos or longer film downloads alongside its traditional singles and album business.
Apple is already using the updated capabilities to sell a small number of video downloads as extras to single purchases. For shoppers buying the Gorillaz album through the U.S. store, iTunes throws in four short video clips
