Amazon launches sale of DRM-free MP3s

Daring Fireball: The Amazon MP3 Store and Amazon MP3 Downloader
I'm with Gruber -- this is a welcome and fan-friendly addition to the marketplace. And, frankly, I'm glad there's finally somebody out there who can really give Apple some competition in this area. One thing: I'm surprised that MP3 sales links aren't yet mixed into regular CD sales pages. That must certainly be high on their TODO list. Because Amazon's Google juice is strong as hell, and on the day they put "Buy This Track Now" onto a few dozen thousand PR5+ music pages? Well. That may be the day Apple gets to really see what competition in this space looks like. 19 Comments

 It seems that I will start spending alot of moneySubmitted by JaggerMyster on September 26, 2007 - 8:34am.
That is of course once I finish using all of my Secondspin credits. I am really happy about this. Even though alot of the same tracks are availiable non-DRM in iTunes, I still prefer MP3 files and these are 256 VBR. » POSTED IN:
