Apple Mulls Flat-Rate "Unlimited Music" Option

Posted by Zonk on from the sounds-delicious dept.

Mike writes "Apple is in discussions with the big music companies about an 'all you can eat' model for buying music that would give customers free access to its entire iTunes music library in exchange for paying a premium for its iPod and iPhone devices. Finally, it looks like the industry (or at least Apple) is 'getting it'. The real question is not whether the big music companies will go for it, but rather, who will be the first one to get smart and agree to offer it?"

    "free access to its entire iTunes music library in exchange for paying"

    You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

    Spoiler: There will be stories that appear on Slashdot that you do not care about. Not everything will apply to you, you egomaniac!
