Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...
The era of one-price-fits-all songs on iTunes came to an end Tuesday as Apple began selling some of its most-downloaded songs for $1.29 apiece.
Apple said in January that it would end its practice of selling all individual songs for 99 cents each and begin offering three tiers: 69 cents, 99 cents and $1.29.
Some examples …
69 cents
“London Calling,” The Clash
99 cents
“Leavin’,” Jesse McCartney
$1.29
“Single Ladies,” Beyonce
What iTunes should be charging …
13 cents
Any “American Idol” performance by Anoop
$5
“Poker Face,” Lady GaGa
We’ll pay YOU
“If You Seek Amy,” Britney Spears
