This is really big. iTunes needs competition. There needs to be someone else that doesn't, "control your data," like Apple does.

Next big question: Is Apple moving iTunes to the cloud.

Because if they aren't, they may be in big trouble.

Download music from amazon.com at amazon.com/mp3. It’s DRM free and a whole lot cheaper than iTunes clocking in at around $.99 per song wheras iTunes is $1.23. The AMazon MP3 sound quality is also better than iTunes. I have a friend in the tech industry who passed along this information to me, I guess the record industry has a hard on for Apple and decided to screw them over by offering lower priced songs and better quality MP3s to Amazon.

They did buy and shut down Lala. It would seem that tech would help with that.

Not so much cloud as sync to own computer. Why fiddle with syncing what I want to my 64gb iPad when there’s an always on path to my 1TB PC at home? Let people make their own “cloud”.
