Amazon mp3 downloads are so much better than iTunes

If you think any of this gibberish looks interesting, you should poke around and subscribe to my RSS feed to keep up with new content.

I haven’t bought anything on iTunes since I learned about Amazon’s mp3 downloads service. It’s painless, cheaper, and I can play mp3’s on anything I want.

How much longer will the iTunes store remain dominant? I think it depends on how much time and money Amazon spends advertising their service. You download a little patch program, and you can order music with one-click, and it automatically ends up in your music player (in my case iTunes).

This is a good thing. DRM’d downloads are doomed.
