You can do that with most anything, so I don't see why not. As far as quality goes, it might be better to rip the audio out of a um, better digital cap of the video that's floating around on the 'net. But if quality doesn't matter, sure, why not try doing that with the iTunes vid? LOL. I'm just surprised there aren't any locks/protection on the files, at least not with the audio downloads, so they're easily shareable with friends, family, other playback devices you may own, etc. without having to "fiddle" with it. I don't know if that was the intention but it makes me more willing to pay the 99 cents a pop for their music rather than just to look to download it for free from places.

I did download the clip from the photobucket site to compare with the full length video, and I am betting the iTunes one would be of lower quality. LOL. I can't say for sure since I haven't downloaded, but if they expect you to watch from a tiny screen, it wouldn't need to be very good to work.
