You know what I wonder?  How is Apple gonna make money at this?  In 
$0.99 per song, they have to pay for:
- development of the system
- credit card transaction fees (possibly 35-40 cents)
- RIAA licensing fees
- who knows what else?

At a buck a song, how will they make money?  Either they're getting a 
killer break on the CC transaction fees, or they're getting incredibly 
low RIAA licensing fees.  I don't get it.  But I like it.  I will buy 
at a buck a song!  Being legit is certainly worth that to me.
