Apple Offers Legal Online Music
Posted: 29th Apr, 2003 By: MarkJ
Apple, the company behind Mac computers, has launched its own LEGAL online music download service. It's expected to offer roughly 200,000 tracks from major artists for just 62p per song:
The Apple venture, called "iTunes Music Store" allows customers to download songs as well as "burn" music for their own personal use and make unlimited copies of the songs onto CDs, which can also be copied without restrictions.
The songs will be offered in AAC audio format, rather than MP3, as Apple says this offers better quality sound.
Sadly Apple's service isn't available in the UK yet, although there are plans to expand it here (why can't they do it now?).
Unfortunately their serious lack of support for the MP3 standard may limit its success; most people own MP3 players and not ones supporting AAC. More @ BBC News Online.
