Cause I don't think they were last time I looked, I had a gift card to use and now I can't get as many songs.

Only when people give me cards. I guess I haven't gotten a card in awhile so I didn't notice.

Lol, thats retarded. At shows sometimes I'll buy an album to help out the smaller bands. I down;oad all my music or get it from other people. I spend so much money at shows, fuck paying to own the music. i buy there tshirts, and see the bands multiple times. I don't owe them that extra amount. Luckily a lot of people are releasing free stuff these days

i mean, ill buy a record now and then, but it has to be something worth paying for.

i bought the The Dark Side of Oz, because i fucking love the problemaddicts, and i bought both of The Stroll and Good Morning by Son REal

I think sometime last year they started charging more for popular songs, and then said they would charge less for some songs. The cheapest I see now is still 99 cents and the most expenisive is 1.29

The mainstream songs have been 1.29 for a while, but most of the legit music is still .99. Use your gift card on apps though.

There not all $1.29 though. I think it's the songs that on the top 100 most popular list and some others. iTunes being the fucks they are want more money I guess?

I wouldn't say they're being fucks, they're just following demand trends and running a business.
