Apple and Twentieth Century Fox have reportedly come to an agreement that will finally make the studio's films available via iTunes in the Cloud. When Apple made movies a cornerstone of the cloud-based initiative (which lets customers redownload previous purchases) earlier this year, the company only had deals in place with four of the "big six" studios — Universal and Fox were the holdouts. It didn't take long for Universal to sign on and add its films to iTunes in the Cloud, but apparently Apple needed more time to hammer out a viable solution with Fox.

Now we're able to confirm that Twentieth Century Fox titles no longer carry a warning that they won't be available from iTunes in the Cloud following purchase. You're free to delete them from your PC/Mac or iOS device and redownload at will, and the same movies can also be streamed from an Apple TV. Keep in mind that Digital Copy codes redeemed from Blu-ray packages will also be among your purchases now stored safely in the cloud, so your collection may prove larger than initially thought. The deal coincides with a large international expansion of iTunes in the Cloud for movies.
