NBC Universal's pulling of their shows from iTunes doesn't only include the programming on the peacock network, but also at least one show on Fox.

Although the popular medical drama House airs on the Fox network, it is produced by Universal Media Studios, a subsidiary of NBC Universal, and thus, has been pulled from iTunes. It is unclear how big of a blow this will be to Apple's television division of iTunes, but seeing as there had been online petitions to get the media store to even carry the show, it is sure to displease a fair number of people.

The falling out between NBC and Apple has been dragging on for weeks now, with both sides firing verbal volleys across each other's bows. All seemed settled with NBC announcing that they would offer free downloads of their own shows, but little did anyone suspect that the network couldn't resist getting in another shot at the Cupertino, CA based computer company before all was said and done.
