AppleMusic

Everybody now knows about the new music store that Apple launched on Monday. What can I say, apart that I legally cannot usebuy from it outside the US, and that instead of hearing that it will come to Windows by the end of the year, I would have preferred to get some hint on when it will come to Europe?

What do you think of the new iPod?

I haven't seen the new ones yet but there is still one thing missing: the ability to use them to dump the memory of a digital camera.

Songs still need to be cheaper, like 50 - 75 cents a piece. You can go to the store and buy the CD at a $1 a song and get the medium that it is stored on!

Don't be greedy man. The musicians get a tiny percent of the money you pay for these songs. And in certain genres of music, well known artists have a hard time surviving on what there work brings in. Remember it's not just Steve Jobs and the record co.s that need to get payed.

Indeed. And whatever the medium, I'd appreciate more clarity about what goes to the artists.
