Apple and Wal-Mart Climbing Into Bed?

We have talked about all the supposed banter that has been flying back and forth about Wal-Mart being miffed at Apple, because their i-Tunes sales are hurting brick and mortar stores, but this morning the new hot rumor is that the two giants may be creating an alliance of sorts.

Apple and Wal-Mart could be about to strike a deal wherein they would both profit from movie downloads from the iTunes Store. The two are said to be in talks regarding video downloads, with a tie-in with Wal-Mart possibly being Apple's best short-term chance to finagle a deal with more movie studios.
