no, just smart. There are more PC users than Mac users in the world, so they're opening up their potential customers.

Its a really great service I mean they give you the ability to record the song you bought in any format and save it however you want...CD MP3 whatever. The best part is that the quality is guerenteed! Oh and did you see that they have a system set up for mini -gift certificates for kids, Iallowence, so you can put cash in the account (or buy a 20 dollar gift certificate and the kids can get a certain number of downloads a week)

Now I want an IPOD bad, especially with the new stuff from belkin, theres an attachment that lets you record yourself and some other cool stuff.

I have an MP3 player, but not an ipod, unfortunately.  I hope the other players get into line and give software that lets their players use itunes files.

Ok I downloaded Itunes for windows yesterday, in addition to getting a great catalog of music you also get a fantastic media player, it even managed to clean up the bad stuff I had downloaded off of Kazaa which was a nice side benefit. And for a free mp3 player it comes with all sorts of graphic equalization, and cooperates really well with quicktime. All 9 songs I downloaded sound great and you can listen to a long preview for each one on the store site.
If you end up getting an account you can set it up either as a click and buy or as a shopping cart. Compulsive spenders can set up an allowence on their account limiting the charges per month to a set limit (a nice feature)

And the songs I downloaded
A Cover of Bob Marleys Redemption Song by the Clash's Joe Strummer .99
Every Day is like SUnday -Morrissey .99
A Fistful of Peanuts(clint eastwood) Spacemonkeyz Vs. Gorillas .99
The Modern Age- the Strokes .99
Ultraviolet-U2 .99
The Times they are a Changing-Bob Dylan .99
The man who sold the world (live)- Nirvanna .99
12:51- the Strokes.99
No Woman No Cry- Bob Marley Live at the Lyceum .99

The store has a large selection of books on tape too.
