Apple Sets Tune for Pricing of Song Downloads 396
PygmySurfer writes "Apple Computer on Monday revealed it had renewed contracts with the four largest record companies to sell songs through its iTunes digital store at 99 cents each. The agreements came after months of bargaining, and were a defeat for music companies that had been pushing for a variable pricing model."

You come to me, come to me wild and wild
When you come to me
Give me every song I need
Give me a lifetime of DRM and a world of corporate music
You speak of giving the artist his fair share like you know what it means
And it can't be wrong
Take my iMac and make it strong baby
You're simply the best, better than all the rest
Better than Napster, Any of pieces of crap I've ever used
I'm stuck on your heart, and hang on every song you sing
Tear us apart, fuck RealPlayer, I would rather be dead
In your threads I see the encrypted bits of every song and every book I play
In your interface I get lost, I get washed away
Just as long as I'm here in your crappy GUI
I could be in no better place
You're simply the best, better than all the rest
Better than Napster, Any of pieces of crap I've ever used
I'm stuck on your heart, and hang on every song you sing
Tear us apart, fuck RealPlayer, I would rather be dead
Each time my Mac bombs I start losing control
You're walking away with my music and I can't get it back because I can't download the song again
I can feel your restrictions even when I'm asleep
Oh baby, don't give me any rights

Perhaps someone should download the Imperial March from iTunes in honour of this.
