iTunes upgrade is great news

For those who have changed over to digital downloads as their main source of music consumption, the upgrade of iTunes is welcome news.

iTunes songs will be sampled at a high quality bit rate, which will make them indistinguishable from CD quality to listeners. Plus, they will be offering music (from select labels) with no DRM (digital rights management). This means that music can be shared.

I think that the music industry has woken up finally, albeit too late, to the fact that this is the future for music buyers. iTunes is the king of them all, and it is a great sign to see them make their service better.
