MUMBAI: Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios Inc. (MGM) has added more programming from MGM’s television library to iTunes Store.

The 22 half-hour episodes from the first season of the television classic The Addams Family are available on iTunes.
Other popular MGM classics, including 32 one-hour episodes from the first season of the original science fiction series The Outer Limits and 32 half-hour episodes of the animated Pink Panther television series will also be available from the iTunes Store later this week.

"We are excited to launch more of MGM's premium and classic television programming through the iTunes Store," said Doug Lee, MGM new media division executive vice president. "We have over 10,000 hours of television programming so making MGM hit series available to the iTunes community is a great way for us to continue our expansion in the new media world."

Earlier this year MGM made episodes of the hit science fiction/adventure series Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis available for purchase and download through the iTunes Store.

Since forming its new media division in April of this year and recruiting Lee to supervise the unit, MGM continues to expand in the new media world, exercising the upside potential of the company's massive programming library. Additional new media announcements are expected in the future.
