Submission + - Eminem Sues iTunes Over Music Distribution
FatMacDaddy writes: According to the SFGate (San Francisco Chronicle web site) Eminem is suing iTunes because even though his label agreed to sell his songs through iTunes nobody bothered to ask him. (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/ 2007/08/01/BUGMARA5I618.DTL) The goal is, of course, money, where Eminem apparently wants his own licensing deal instead of royalties. This could have a huge impact on the cost of music downloads and sellers such as iTunes if his suit is successful. On the other hand, could it be a way to put money directly into the artists' hands without going through the labels?
