at 99 cents this is well below what the market will support, we just
need to have a product people find value in when you can still "file
share " music what is the point in paying for it stopping free file
sharing should be the highest priority in the music industry at this
time only once we stop giving away what is not ours to give will
people reluctantly begin paying what it is worth
This is not what's happening at all though. There's no shortage of
people paying for downloads. Jobs wasn't lamenting a lack of business.
He was only saying that he wasn't making a net profit on that business.

Wrong, it has proven to be the other way around. Only once they
started charging money for what people want did they stop taking it for
free. It's true there are still people filesharing but that has not
been an obstacle to the success of paid downloads whatsoever.
I disagree
I ALWAYS look for the freeware or share ware before shelling out for the
full price version it works the same for music
