Long live iTunes... iTunes is dead

Well, not really. But Amazon is releasing the hounds to say the least.

Simple, stupidly easy music tracks for 89 cents. Albums starting at $4.99.

Did I mention plays anywhere? Indeed - all the music is the DRM free, plays on just about anything (phone, iPod, Zune, and probably on your MP3 toaster.)

They're not the first, of course. eMusic, AllOfMp3, even iTinues (sans MP3), and various others have done something along those lines. But it was either light on selection, bad presentation, or barely legal.

I predict Amazon will do great things here - at the very least
