Well, some good songs can can be found once in a while that cost less than the other overplayed trash out there……
1. Motley Crue’s Doctor Feelgood
2. Coldplay’s Viva La Vida

But alas, the list ends here, I guess…..

some of the popular songs are cheaper is you buy the less popular version
example:
Hello World by lady antebelum was 1.29 as a single and below it was the exact same song for .99 the only difference was the popularity

The prices range from how popular they are, not how old or new they are. Even some of the oldest songs could be $1.29, not just brand new ones.

It might be because eMusic & other online digital music places are charging 40 cents to 49 cents, per song (when you buy a Monthly subscription with them).

Best of All the music is your own, no DRM, attached

I think I payed 46 cents for all my songs over the last 2 years. Also, if you see an album with Deal
or both Pick & Deal: You will get a whole album, for even cheaper. I see albums with 20-25 songs that say deal, & cost 12 credits(Credit = 46 cents) Thats $5.52 for a 25 song album, that can be played everywhere. I have 52GB’s of MP3′s that are not stuck on just an iPod, iPhone, iPad, Mac or PC, but on the car stereo, with a 64GB Mem stick!

Just thought I’d chime in and tell y’all (from Texas) that there has been one song I haven’t been able to get out of my head since I first heard it. It’s the song that is played during the trailer for Where the Wild Things Are. I thought it was Kings of Leon, but it’s actually a band called Arcade Fire and the song is called “Wake up”. Well, surprisingly it’s 69 cents and a badass song! Take care everyone.

By chance I noticed that one-hit wonder Jane Child’s “Don’t want to Fall in Love” was $0.69.

Curious, I searched her name and every other track was $.99 despite all of them having been B-sides.

Weird.

What could they possibly be using for criteria?

Auctually boycotting the more expensive songs will do no good. A while back there was an article that pointed out that if even as low as (something like) 30% of people that were going to buy the songs did so, the music industry would still be making more off the songs then they were before the price increase.

Also, it isn’t iTunes. It is all the (legal) online distributers have this new pricing scheme.

It’sa racket and the consumer is loosing.
