From PC Pro News:
The new issue of PC Pro, which goes on general sale today, includes a headline-grabbing exposé of the UK’s online music market. It reveals what many have suspected for some time: that the British public is being asked to pay too much money for tracks, that the music is often poorly encoded, and that the limitations over what people can and can’t do with the tracks are strict to the point of draconian.
‘What people don’t understand is that when they buy an iPod or other digital music player, they’re being tied into a system,’ believes Deputy Labs Editor, Nick Ross. ‘Many of our readers have already been caught out, buying tracks but being unable to play them on their player.’
