The Beatles Finally Enter MP3 Age

While I’m certainly happy that the Beatles catalog is now available on Itunes (follow this link to the Beatles’ Itunes page)., it brings up an interesting question: How do you feel about paying the same OR MORE for the mp3s?

A quick look at amazon.com shows most of the Beatles remastered CDs at a staggeringly low price of $7.99, while Itunes has most Beatles albums for $12.99.  That’s five dollars more for, essentially, less.  No physical CD.  No case.  No booklet (okay, you get a “digital booklet”).  And, if your Ipod crashes, it’s gone.

 

So, will you pay more for less?  Is it worth it for the convenience?  What do you think?
