because people start saying people use itunes anyway and they are doing good.
http://digg.com/apple/iTunes_top_tracks_1_29_Amazon_0_99_thanks_record_labels, well it's still anticompetitive because they are the biggest one and the main one.
but recently amazon started to grow and offered undrmed music , but Mp3s.
so no even if itunes is AAC many other services like amazon support mp3.
@nintendofan, thats a transcoding rule, any kind of transcoding degrate the quality of the sound, even up.
so if you transcode a 64kbps to 320kbps you won't get better quality, actually it should get a bit worse.
So ... it's anticompetitive because ... it's bigger than the competition?  Is Intel anticompetitive because it's bigger than AMD?
yes, if you didn't know they are, they are even trying to kill X86 AMD business.

while big and the main one supporting others players it's not nice, it's like microsoft banned firefox from being installed on windows pc and you could only use IE.

when others stores let you use any player you want even cellphones.

But see now you're saying that Intel has anticompetitive business tactics.  Suppose that Intel was nice as could be, "I'll do my thing and you do yours AMD, and may God defend the right"; would Intel still be anticompetitive just because of the fact that Intel is bigger than AMD?  Because that's what you said about Apple iTunes. 

no thats not the reason, a not because it bigger you are missing part of the convesation i said they are anticompetive because they don't let other players play their music from their store, only ipods could play before.

while for a while being biggest music online store, but now with amazon pressure they are selling undrmed stuff like amazon. mp3 256kbps undrmed service.

similar intel is trying to do with AMD, locking up licensings of X86 archicture.
