Yes, yes, yes.
I am second to none in hating and using Apple -I hate getting screwed on the prices so bad. A buck 30 for a digital song is ridiculous.
But, I use Itunes because it is so damn easy and useful and I trust em and I understand them.
So now comes news that Apple have signed up the four major labels and will allow its customers to store their music on the cloud. Essentially, your music collection will be off your computer and in outer space where you can access it anytime you want.
Me? I CAN NOT WAIT.
My PC is ready to meltdown because I have so much music on it, I don't know if I can make it to September, I can get it into outerspace. I think Bob Lefsetz is too deeply involved with Apple, sucks up to Jobs big time, but Lefsetz is great on the music business (his problem is he doesn't know a thing about actual music), and he is 100% right about Icloud. In one fell swoop, Jobs has killed off subscription based streaming a la Spotify and replaced it with a tidal wave change in the way we listen to music.
It isn't just music of course, all that crap you store on your pc you can now store in the wky… OH BRAVE NEW WORLD!!!!!
Steve Jobs is very sick at the moment. We wish him the best, maybe more if he'd lower the price of a track back down to a buck.
