This week I-Tunes began selling "premium" digital downloads that are higher quality and FREE of Digital Rights.
In layman terms, that means better sound with NO restrictions on how you use the music. It's a standard MP3 file that can be played ANYWHERE and copied as much as you want.
The catch? The songs are $1.29 instead of .99.
Now we used to pay $1.99 for a vinyl single, so $1.29 for a digital download isn't unreasonable, and this is a way to FINALLY get through to the blockheads at the major labels that the restrictions they put on music will NOT be tolerated.
Only a few labels have agreed to this new policy. Let's reward them and show the industry the time for their iron fisted music management is OVER!
