    Apple isn't going to sit idle either. So it's unlikely MS will ever overtake the iTMS...just like the Mac will never overtake Windows.



    Microsoft lost this one...but they shouldn't cry over it.




    Apple don't have that high a market share in Europe. M$ could overtake, and it's not that unlikely.

    No, the MSN prices are more expensive, usually around 1.20 from what I remember.



    The price of a song on MSN Musik in denmark is actually DKK 9.90 which is a mindboggling and extremly expensive USD 1.72 per song. That's EUR 1.33 per song.



    I wonder what the iTunes Music Store will charge in denmark if and when they open a store here.

    In the UK, last I heard, it was 4 times the size of the competitors combined. Seems to me it's doing fine.

    The other week Radio 1's Chris Moyles put a track up on many download places. It never went onto iTunes though This meant I had to download it from somewhere else and the experience was much less than pleasant. Although I used the Coke Music site to get it as I had free credits from drinking so much Coke, I did have to "pay" twice as my computer kept crashing whilst downloading the lisences... I have now burned the wma to CD to put it into iTunes...



    I wouldn't touch another download site now, unless the same thing happened again...
