In spite of the recent light-hearted jabs at Apple, its patriarch Steve Jobs, and its culture of idolizing fans, The Simpsons has finally found a home on iTunes. The episode Mypods and Boomsticks saw Lisa go overboard with "MyTunes" downloads from "Mapple", racking up a massive bill. Whereas Lisa downloaded jazz albums and Itchy and Scratchy episodes, you can now download season twenty of The Simpsons, including that Mapple episode. The collected season is available for $38 in standard definition. There's no back catalog of classic Simpsons episodes to pick through just yet, but the fact that there's a deal in place for recent episodes is a good sign that we'll be seeing more Simpsons available through the service.
While the iTunes download is a great way to get some recent episodes on your iPod or iPhone to catch up with them on-the-go, if you're looking for a free source of Simpsons videos, Hulu has a ton of clips up on its site. Unfortunately, there are few full episodes online right now, with only five of the most recent ones available for you to stream.
