This is why I get my songs for free. I won't give them $ to drive around in 100k cars.

Inflation!!! Now! The prices are falling down due to the current market situation "financial crisis". I don't know how did they think that people are willing to pay more.

Prices went up from $1.69 to $2.19, including some pretty average selling singles from a decade ago. Instead of buying them through iTunes, as I planned - I downloaded then via a torrent!

@Wyatt:

Please refrain from your OTA download opinions. They will exist as long as people want to download that way.

Until music is offered uncompressed I'll never purchase music for download OTA or otherwise.

@Steve: Please refrain from pointing fingers as the "worthless freaks" as you so eliquently put it, exist across all genres of music. One that same note they will continue to exist as long as people buy what their selling.

Off-topic, but I just want to see the rappers, hip-hoppers, and other worthless freaks disappear for good sometime before I die. How long are brainless trendy fools going to support these illiterate ret@rds? My colon has more musical talent.

Sadly, I've heard Biden is pro Big Media, and they'll be staffing with pro-ACTA/DMCA types

@Justin Well then not all but most bands should have more then 1 or 2 songs on their album worth buying. These days if you buy a album you are usually buying it for 1 or 2 tracks since many tracks are garbage these days...

Yea know i've been waiting for the uproar today, now that the other stores have raised their prices. Apple at least told us they were going to

They also gave into record companies to get DRM free tracks as the norm. So for 29 cents more you get DRM free and a much higher bitrate so it's not that bad.

Another part of me is actually happy becuase I love music / bands, but now everyone just downloads one track from here, one track from there. It's kind of sad the idea of an album is almost gone. I say this because it seems like the album prices are still at $9.99, maybe encourage people to buy albums again.

As if the Internet community needed more of a reason to download illegally.

This will probably force people to downloading illegally more often. $1.29 for one song is kind of ridiculous if you ask me.
