Making Sense of New Prices on Apple’s iTunes

The article that I read for this week was called Making Sense of New Prices on Apple’s iTunes  by Brad Stone. On April 7th, iTunes great 99 cent prices for every song is being changed to a three tier pricing system where not so good oldies are 69 cents, old songs are 99 cents and new songs are now priced at $1.29 per song.

This new change is not so good for someone like me who loves music and is always buying new songs that just come out. However, if you are someone who does not use apple products, such as a different brand mp3 player you could benefit from this. With raising the price, Apple agreed to remove the DRM protection off the music files so now these songs can be played through different players.
