Labels and Itunes to work together "sort of" With the decline in sales of CDs, though that claim isnt really true. I recenlty saw a special and ACDC was on and they talking about how their "Back in Black" record which was their biggest seller, was selling about 10,000 units a day in its peak, which means around 70,000 a week, and back then it put ACDC in the top 10, nowadays thats exactly where it would put you, so the decline in sales is bull, its just labels have so many things to pay that they lose money so they make seem like sales are down. But anyway, the point im trying to make is now, ITUNES and the Labels are working together, U will start seeing albums NOT available for a few weeks on ITUNES and only in stores so it gets people into the stores again. The same goes for "singles" being released to Itunes, dont expect to see this happening like it has been, u will probably see the single after the CD release. Universal the biggest company around will be the first to test this, and already has started testing it. But of course Itunes got a big payday for working a joint venture with the labels. So if U love downloading from itunes, which i dont, though i have it for over a year i think i have downloaded 3 songs, you better be ready to be real patient.
