why amazon bests iTunes
I buy my mp3’s on amazon, now, whenever possible. usually, I find what I’m looking for, even indie stuff. God bless iTunes for starting the digital download revolution, but “move over bacon, make room for something better!”
simply…
amazon offers mp3’s, which are cross-platform…
…iTunes forces you to use mp4’s.
amazon offers DRM-free downloads…
…iTunes makes you pay more for DRM-free, and doesn’t even offer it for most titles.
amazon offers a 256kbps bit rate…
…iTunes gives you 128kbps.
the match goes to amazon, 3-0.

Agree completely. Made the switch to amazon a few months ago.
Save 5 pepsi tops and get a free song. If you drink pepsi as much as me, it really adds up.

Actually, iTunes no longer charges more for DRM-free music. All tracks are 99 cents and DRM-free is used if the record-label allows…
