The UK music market got even more competitive today with the launch of Amazon’s UK digital music store, as a direct rival to Apple’s iTunes.
www.amazon.co.uk is offering over 3m DRM-free tracks from only 59p and albums from only £3 each – including new releases - with music from all four major and a host of independent labels.
The prices undercut those of market leader Apple iTunes, whose tracks start at 79p each. Amazon’s UK MP3 store succeeds the US version which launched previously. The long-awaited UK version should shake up the UK marketplace and provide some healthy competition.
