The rumors have been going on for some time now… But it looks like the iTunes subscription rumors are coming up yet again. Yipee!
According to a report over at the Financial Times, Apple is currently in discussions with major music labels about a new model that would give all of us free access to the entire iTunes music library in exchange for paying premiums for iPod and iPhone devices. Really? Hmmm… now that IS intriguing!
Since iPhone already runs on a monthly billing cycle, a subscription option would more than likely be the best option there.
A report from engadget noted that the major holdup is apparently ‘Apple’s hesitation to pay big bucks in order to access the labels’ libraries’…
I sincerely hope this actually happens… Unlimited music downloads for a monthly fee would be incredible. Premium pricing for an iPod and/or iPhone would be ok too, but I would much prefer the subscription service.
