The iPod is pretty much the only device that supports AAC. iTunes still doesn't sell MP3 (which is the standard) and therefore doesn't sell what I want. For $1.30 (which is 30% higher than what the market charges), I expect to get exactly what I want. |

I think we ALL agree that no-DRM music (and e-books) are good, and that both still have a ways to go to be great. We may argue about the proper price for an MP3 single, but we ALL agree that e-books' average price should be considerably less than they are. And obviously, all this is being done because of business, and the pursuit of profit... not for altruistic motives. But that doesn't mean we can't still applaud their efforts and encourage them to do more. *Just wanted to make sure no one here thought the matching initials were more than a coincidence... |

But I wasn't talking about "mainstream" music. I was talking about music in general. But what is "mainstream" music anyway? The drivel on the radio (which - at least in my area - seems to be rehashing alot from the 1980's) maybe? With the radio getting worse and worse, and people leaving it for their MP3 players, what plays on the radio isn't "mainstream" to me. |
