Good. Some competition for iTunes. Songs should be about 25 cents if that.
@RalphCramden if you want songs to be $.25 then go talk to the recording labels. They're the ones making the most money off the sales.

Yes they are which is why bootlegging is so popular.
 @RalphCramden Or you could go and listen to your phonograph.

I live my phonograph. I have hundreds of LP and 78's. Some are original Billy Holiday, Muddy Waters, and John Lee Hooker.
