Canadian iTunes Music Store Opens

Trillan writes "After appearing on December 1st, iTunes music store Canada is now officially open. Price is only $0.99 CDN (about $0.83 US) per song, so it's less expensive than the US store. This is probably fair since our CDs are usually cheaper here, too, at least on the west coast."

Fairness

"This is probably fair since our CDs are usually cheaper here, too, at least on the west coast."

That's not a usage of "fair" I'm familiar with. Are you Canadians getting 16% less music per track than Americans? Or did you mean to say "it's unfair in a similar way to the current CD price-fixing scheme"?

Boo hoo. A top end G5 here costs $600 more if I take the US price and do the conversion to Canadian. I might as well just drive across the border and buy one. Then figure out a way to smuggle it back.
