Excerpt:
--------------------
 "The site is called BuyMusic.com. At first glance it looks a lot like Apple's
offering and markets itself using TV commercials that are a note-for-note
rip-off of the lauded Apple spots.

That's where the similarities end. Simply put, while iTunes Music Store is the
Rolls-Royce of online music, BuyMusic.com is a Yugo." 

--------------------

Can't wait to see what the iTMS comes out with for the windows crowd. Have not
yet seen the commercials for Apple or BuyMusic but then again, I gave up on TV
years ago...
