Apple gets Exclusive Distribution of Soundtrack

I think this an intersting move on the part of Apple and the music companies. I'll be very curious to see how sales go. For who knows, if it does well this may become more of a norm. Hard to say though.

smart move on the label. why press copies of a soundtrack that will bomb? hehe

Let's hope this is the first of many.

Haha. No physical proof!

Wow! I wonder if THIS isn't encouraging piracy. People will

1) have to find a friend with a Mac AND and ITMS account

2) switch :-)

3) find the music in "dark places".

Somehow I feel that 3) will be the option for some people.

Interesting. I'd like to see how people deal with this one. Not that anyone will want to pirate it anyway, because i'm sure that soundrack won't be too rockin', but still. From the iTMS you download password protected AAC files, it's a lot more work to burn a cd.

Please tell me you are referring to attempting to burn ACC files on a PC! If not then WHAT KIND OF CRACK ARE YOU SMOKING? I have noticed zero difference (time, ease, etc) between burning ACC files and ripped MP3s (from CD's I own). I have burned plenty of CDs containing all ACC files, all MP3s, and mixes of both. Not one single difference.
