Apple wins iTunes pricing battle
This probably is one of the only times you'll find me with something good to say about a monopoly. Apple's control of 80% of the market, with no signs of them doing anything other than increasing their market share, makes Apple in the rare position to actually dictate to the more vile and sinister monopoly which is the greedy record industry executives. At 99 cents Apple is walking a tightrope with customers who have become complete disenchanted with the one hit per album that has become the norm among the music industry types. They would rather get away with selling you one song you want and ten others that you have no interest in. Their dream is to destroy Apple's successful model ,which has allowed them to give people exactly what they want at a price, while way too high is reasonable enough to justify going legal. The music industry would rather destroy the market and customers in it with their greedy selfish quest for profit. They are a vile and disgusting bunch, you'll notice most of their contributions head towards the GOP as well. Sadly if you look closely most every battle for freedom in this country, you can easily follow the money back to the GOP. The party of corruption and a hate of freedom that will not die.
