OK, I’m an iTunes junkie
Friday, May 16th, 2008Seriously. The last few days have been spent downloading all sorts of things from iTunes. I like supporting iTunes as much as I hate DRM. But the point is that I’m catching up with a lot of music I wish I had in my library that I just really didn’t.
I thought about it the other day: if I’m willing to buy all sorts of handbags and jeans that are kinda not cheap but I’m still reticent about completing my media library, something is wrong. I ran the numbers in my head: $200 pair of 7s = 200 songs. That’s a lot of songs. That means I get my old Del Tha Funkee Homosapien (Mistadobalina, anyone?) as well as Richard Cheese along with Ingrid Michaelson, and there’s still change left over.
But, what’s up with Jason Mraz’ latest deluxe album: it’s $19.99. Most albums are $13.99 or less but this one is a cool $20. Geez!
