Wal-Mart Stores Inc. began a test Thursday of its new 88-cent-per-song online music service, trying to capture more of the music market at a price that undercuts the 99-cent standard of its competition.

• Download music to 1 computer and back up to up to two additional computers
• Make 10 burns to a CD
• Make unlimited transfers to portable player

Standardrättigheter förutom bränningar och 1 bärbar spelare. Fortfarande ingen tjänst i Sverige. Come on now. Och Apple vägrar svara på mina frågor.

On Thursday morning, the Walmart.com music site featured the club mix of OutKast's "Hey Ya!" as its top download. Its No. 9 entry was "First Cut is the Deepest" by Sheryl Crow.

In 1996, Wal-Mart refused to stock a CD by Crow that contained lyrics criticizing Wal-Mart for selling guns. Her greatest hits CD is featured on the site with a greatest hits CD by country performer Alan Jackson under the heading "All the Best." The Crow CD doesn't feature the offending song, "Love is a Good Thing."

Då har man fan för mycket makt. När en artist som blivit censuererad inte fortfarande inte kan välja bort att finnas med i deras butiker. Damn.
