I think this Wal-Mart is going to come out with this head strong and simply dominat ethe industry. Because they can afford to lose money on the songs, it will just open up a new horizon for them. But in order to do so, as SNGX has s****ted they need to be able to download the explicit songs, because there is nothing worse than going to Wal-Mart and trying to buy a CD only to find out it is the edited version. That pisses me off. We'll just have to wait and see how this thing progresses.
I sure hope not. That may sound a little contradictory coming from me, the capitalist, but iTunes is a much higher quality and integrity service than anything Wal-Mart would put out. I'm a capitalist in Andrew Carnegie's sense, who's sole desire was to make a higher quality product at a lower cost, and thus dominate the industry by doing that. iTunes has many more redeeming qualities than WMA (Wal-Mart Audio), chiefly the media player program, MP3 support, and that you're supporting a computer company that you know (and love ) and not some cut-rate retail outlet who only wants to make money and conquer the market by doing it.
