$250,000 first day takings for the Apple Music store

Nicest of the Damned: Apple Music: Turning scofflaws into customers

It seems to me, though, that Apple has scored a breakthrough

I bought a single song today to see how it all works and it’s pretty easy to imagine spending a ton of money on music without feeling bled dry by $18.99 retail prices.

And 250,000 affirmative votes on the first day of business is very nice. While the Leading Brand tried to appease the media companies in their efforts to criminalize their markets, Apple finds a way to make money for the same dinosaurs and please its own customers.
