Hi....

Thought folks might be interested in this. Obviously so you can buy tunes and play them under Tiger :)

When posting links to the Sydney Morning Herald, could every please remember to remove the "?oneclick=true" part of the URL. This stops the redirect to the annoying signup page.

Thanks

(A Mac user who certainly won't be using the store at $1.80 a track.)


If anyone is an avid reader of Appletalk.com.au, you will know that the tracks will be $1.69 each, and a few people have already signed up and bought tracks. Apple have somehow left a backdoor open into iTunes, and people have been able to sign up.

I don't mind paying $1.69 a track, if it means I save $17 on an album that has one good song and 11 fillers ;-)

That still works out to US$1.29 per track.

Minus 10% GST comes to US$1.16 per track

So we pay a US$0.17 (AUS$0.22) premium per track for living in Australia.

Thanks Apple. Can someone please pass me the KY?
