“Apple’s iTunes U has expanded, now offering not only a Stanford iTunes store, but also content for other universities,” iPodNN reports. “Tunes U uses the same technology as the iTunes Music Store, and can be customized with school colors, logos and photography. The iTunes U store offers integrated podcasting support, protection for online learning investments, and one-click iPod support. Instructors can post and edit their content at any time without affecting the IT department, as all content is stored in the Apple-hosted repository.”
