yes it’s true. They mentioned that in the google I/O, not sure which one it was. They said it was free for now as beta.

Hopefully that’s 1.29 pesetas, since I wouldn’t more than a US penny for a Green Day song!

Buying a song is not analogous to buying an entire album. It’s more similar to buying a single back in the vinyl days (which granted had a B-side). In today’s money those singles I bought back in the 80′s would probably retail for about $5 or $6. I don’t think $1 is unreasonable. What is unreasonable is the amount of money that makes it back to the artists and the dodgy accounting the music companies use to rob artists of even more of those royalties, sometimes so much that the artists owes the record company money.

I’m willing to bet, like Amazon, Google’s music store will be sans DRM.

Your 47 step seems entirely unnecessary. From the limited amount of music I’ve purchased from Amazon, I just used the Amazon software to download the music to a folder that is watched by GoogleMusic uploader. No need to involve Dropbox or iTunes.

Of course there’s 2 task killers. 1 to kill the tasks that use up that precious battery life and the other to kill the task killer using up precious battery life killing tasks.

I currently have Amazon Cloud Drive and Google Music all set up. I’m buying all my music through Amazon, and using a 47 step process which includes Dropbox and Itunes to to get it into Google Music. If Google’s service is close to Amazon’s, I’m prepared to go all in!

You don’t have to compromise. Get your tunes from Amazon, download them, then synch them with Music Beta. Most of us use the Android Market but still get the FAOTD from Amazon Appstore; why not do the same, here?

I can’t get amazon mp3 and I feel dirty bying stuff from apple, they have nothing to do with music! So if google beats amazon to having a store in canada I’ll probably use it
