Quote:Apple Music Service to Go Live

Apple Computer will on Monday start its bid to become the leading online music retailer with a fee-based service allowing songs to be downloaded for 99 cents apiece.
The US computer group's new venture is backed by the world's five largest music companies, and marks the latest industry effort to challenge the loss of revenue from the millions of fans who download music illegally on file-swapping services.
The big record companies had hitherto resisted the development of online music despite rampant piracy and falling revenues.

Would you be interested in using this service? How do you think that Apple will do compared to the free file sharing services?
I think services, especially those of musicians and partly those of the music industry, should be rewarded with reasonable rates.
