   And I failed to understand a single word after “workflow” … Actually, I understood everything up until the jargon about v2.2 and v1 tags. But anyway. (c: Of course, this doesn’t do us non-Mac people any good. (And no, Sujal, I can’t afford to go out and buy yet another computer. So hush.)

   Is there a job that will pay me to blog all day?

   Personally I think it is a great idea, just needs some tweaking before it gets usefull. I am all about the single pop songs that don’t require an entired cd of crap…

   From the Billboard Daily Bulletin:

   The service, which went live Monday (Bulletin, April 18), sold an estimated 275,000 tracks at 99 cents apiece in its first 18 hours, according to major-label sources. The feat is especially remarkable when considering that the offering is available only to the limited universe of users of Apple computers. The launch thereby sets the stage for a race between a host of media and technology companies to create and effectively promote similar services for the much bigger Microsoft-equipped PC market.

   “There is going to be a race to see who can get to the Windows market and start to replicate this,” says the head of new media at one major label. “The question is [whether] someone else wants to put up the kind of money that Apple is to let people know they’re there.”

   Apple says it plans to make iTunes compatible with the PC by the end of the year. Sources tell Bulletin that two major labels have already cut wholesale agreements with Apple for the Windows version of the service

   Looks like you were not the only one buying Pop singles
