BIG iTMS news for Pearl Jam fans.
I just read this over on another board. I'm waiting for a link to verify. If it's true, it's huger than huge for iTMS and PJ.

In other news, Pearl Jam has pacted with Apple's iTunes Music Store to offer paid downloads directly from its official Web site. The initiative was fostered by Apple's new software iTunes Link Maker, which allows site operators to generate direct links to the iTunes store.
Thoughts?

Now people browsing directly on a band's site can give Apple a few cents. Now bands not willing or able to go through the trouble of setting up a secure site can rely on Apple to do the leg work.
Watch out eBay, here comes Apple.

Well, Pearl Jam just dropped their label in favor of handling distibution themselves. Could they be moving to an all download format, could this be the future of music for the rest of the industry.
Interesting...if Pearl Jam are not going through a label, who gets the labels piece of the $0.99? Or are they going to charge less for Pearl Jam songs?
Brian Vander Ark does this. He has his own Lable. www.bvamusic.com
BVA from the Verve Pipe.
I saw them last night at the Bridge School Benefit........awesome as ever. Masters of War when done by vedder and mccready just scares the crap out of me.

I haven't heard that song in a while. You lucky bastard. You got to see PJ and avoid watching the Yanks go down in one night.
