The thread title should be changed to:

Random people with no knowledge of music industry speculate
on song prices set by the greedy music industry executives,
and blames it on iTunes.

I like it!

Imagine if we started getting accurate titles like that all the time!!
 
when the pricing structure hits the UK, i am gonna be using play.com much more to download music. 65p-70p per track and drm free- you can't really argue with that😎
 
They're... not.

They said most would be either .69 or .99 still. The newest and most popular would be $1.29.

New rules of thumb:

if you've heard it on the radio anytime in the last 40 years, expect to pay $1.29

if it is a song you think you maybe have heard once at a friend's house expect to pay $.99

If it's a song you've never heard, will only download to complete an album and will never listen to again, expect to pay $.69.

Again, based upon absolutly nothing.

I fully expect that most of the old, catalog titles that I want will be $0.69 and therefore save me a couple bucks.
 
anyone know when the new pricing will go into effect? i though it was supposed to happen in april....
