He put his money where his mouth is (or already had his money there and waited until he knew for sure the deal was done, then wrote about it). I am totally willing to pay an extra $.30 for 256kbps, DRM-free songs. Small price to pay if you ask me. I hope videos are not far behind, although that's probably just wishful thinking.

"The tracks will be available for 99p in the UK, with tracks at the existing quality available for 79p. Consumers will be able to buy entire superior quality albums at the standard AAC price, and upgrade to superior quality tracks for 20p per track."
How the hell can the justify charging more for higher bit-rate versions of tracks? By "higher quality" I presume they mean lossless (Apple Lossless?). This is clearly an example of the major's wishing they hadn't been forced into 79p per track downloads in the first place...
