In a big stupid move, several music companies are fighting Apple over the pricing of digital downloads at the iTunes music store.
Now, in their infinite wisdom, the record companies have forgotten how bad things were before iTunes and want to jack up prices. (Note, for example, that the new Death Cab for Cutie album, one of this fall's most-anticipated releases, costs $11.99 on iTunes today. All that the market will bear, as Frank Norris would say.)
If they liked days when people stole music, then they should go ahead with trying to muscle iTunes.
What's nice about taking a vacation, you get to catch up on some good reading.
