The site will feature over 250 pieces of audio and video content, including news programs, performances, lectures, events, and content produced for the Big Ten Network."</em></p><p><em><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/at/auto/1234829648.usr105634.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></em></p><p><a href="http://www.apple.com" target="_blank">Apple</a> has a pretty impressive list of <a href="http://deimos3.apple.com/WebObjects/Core.woa/Browse/itunesu.com.1555792676" target="_blank">providers</a> for this section of iTunes, with a library of over 100,000 audio and video files. This is one of my favorite parts of the iTunes store, and I enjoy browsing and being surprised at the content that is made available. And it's not just a one way street, as Apple also provides information on how "your" university can become part of the free <a href="http://developer.apple.com/iphone/program/university.html?cid=ITS-NAUS-ITUNESU-IPHONEDEVU081119" target="_blank">iPhone Developer University Program</a> and teach students how to program applications for the iPhone/iPod Touch. </p>
