free Sony Connect downloads with McDonalds (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/music/3775657.stm)
With offers like this, and Napster offering 5 free downloads as an intro, Apple needs to pull its finger out and launch iTMS in Europe/Canada/etc SOON.
At least publish a launch date - that way people can decide if its worth waiting for Apple, or just start using one of the others. I know Apple won't do this, but I think this could work against them. I am prepared to wait a couple of months if I know when its coming, but if I think it could be several months then I may just jump in with one of the others. (of course, actually using it regularly will depend on the price structure...........)
I don't have an ipod, so the music format is not critical to me at the moment.
