RealPlayer Cuts Music Download Prices
Posted on August 18, 2004
RealNetworks has cut prices for music song downloads to 49 cents to compete with music downloads stores like iTunes that offer downloads for 99 cents each. News.com reports that RealNetworks has also made its downloads compatible with the iPod music play. However, Apple claims they did not give RealNetworks permission to do this and compared the company to a hacker.
In a statement Apple said, "RealNetworks has adopted the tactics and ethics of a hacker to break into the iPod, and we are investigating the implications of their actions under the (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) and other laws."
The RealNetworks site is located at real.com.
