iTunes Competition

Sorry for the sporadic postings, but in a whirlwind at the moment. But, some interesting news in the tech world today, as Amazon has released Amazon MP3; a DRM-free music store, with downloads costing only $.89 to $.99 per song and albums from $5.99-$9.99. Remember, these are all DRM-free, which means you can use them how you like and on any MP3 player (yes, there are others besides the iPod). You can purchase music much like in iTunes, and send them right to iTunes or Windows Media Player (yes, some people actually still use WMP). The sight was just released, so I have not played around on it too much, but, knowing Amazon, it is probably done right.
