Despite a gigantic lead in the online MP3 market, Apple appears to be playing dirty against Amazon MP3, using its clout with the record labels to try to snuff out Amazon's popular "Daily Deal" promotion.
In 2008, when Amazon MP3 first launched, the Daily Deal was paid for by Amazon, out of their own pockets, as a way to get traffic to the service. In 2009 however, says a label exec, "that ... [ read the full article ]

Yeah, pretty much. Apple thinks that since it's a "superior" company, that the rules don't apply to them. Money may talk, but a crash always befalls those who think they're invincible!! I for my part will have nothing to do with Apple, mainly b/c of this reason. - BLUEBOY

Hey, I bet you would be mad if a bunch of overpriced engineers starting bringing you exploding iPhones and a tablet that does not even have multitasking, along with a line of MACs where the best feature is the ability to run windows.

Why make such a big deal of Company Names? If you want an mp3 player with the features you like, buy the one that meets them and which you can get for a fair price. Don't moan about it. If you want a "telephone", nothing but a "telephone", go for what is reliable and cheap. You wanna brag about your phone, sure, buy an I-P-H-O-N-E. I, personally don't give a F... If Apple succeeds in fooling many of you that they have the best, good for them...Look at the sales figures and see who's better at "marketing". Reverse them if you can.

I will never own a "Crapple" product. They have too much DRM crap that limits my options. I want to be able to transfer music, movies, etc to any portable player I have when I want.

I heard that Apple may start selling lossless AAC. I hope Amazon plays it smarter, and offers FLAC instead.
... and at the same price as mp3, I might add. Then, they'll have my business. I would have replaced an old record today if was available in lossless.
