Yes. But that article made my point. The proprietary software isn't Apple's -- it's the movie industry's. Hence why the statement sounded backwards to me. Seems pretty clear that, unlike music, Apple's clout with TV and Movies is still too nascent. NBC has gone it's own way, because it can -- providing its own free downloads, but only watchable on NBC.com, and only for a limited time. Eventually, NBC says it'll offer episodes for purchase online, but I guarantee it won't be for $1.99, like iTunes and Amazon Unbox. So...again...it's not Apple. It's NBC. And it's the rest of the movie industry. Jobs is right--they work differently from music.
