John,

The Amazon store is a major win for many digital media heads, a win for innovation and choice :) and a nice addition to eMusic, already the second largest store and 100% MP3.

But I'm confused by your comment. When you say "itunes plug-in" do you mean a Firefox add-on specific to the Amazon MP3 store? Or perhaps an AppleScript on OS X?

Recall that iTunes doesn't support plug-ins to other stores. Or subscription services. Or radio services. Or video services. Or social networking services that incorporates music, video, movies, etc. Or recommendation services. Or locker services. Etc.

Moreover, iTunes doesn't support your non-Apple mobile handset. Or your non-Apple portable MP3 player. Or your non-Apple home LAN setup. Or run on Linux.

These are some of the reasons for and needs met by Songbird.

More to come. :)

Unbelievable. It's the prototype of New Order The Perfect Kiss video probably a decade or so early. I have a couple Factory 7"s of The Wake but haven't heard/seen this before... What else have you got? =)
