I just bought an Itunes giftcard and bought an album on my desktop Itunes.

Is there any way to access my purchased itunes library from my Iphone? And yes I'd check myself but I can't get wifi here

What's interesting to me is that people equate the $1 itunes song to equal 1 song from a purchased CD. IMHO they're not equal at all. When I purchase a CD I'm getting the full, uncompressed audio. An mp3, aac, or whatever itunes uses is compressed nearly 90%. Granted, on joe six pack's $30 mp3 player, he may not really notice or care, but you're still paying the same amount for 90% less data. If they offered 50MB uncompressed audio tracks for $1, I'd be all over it.

Not to mention that more of the revenues of it go to the artists, who make next to nothing off digital downloads.

It's not just iTunes. smile.gif

But to use iTunes as an example, Apple only takes 20 cents of every song. All the rest of that money goes to the labels and the record company.

In comparison though, a place like Best Buy only makes about 5% on each CD sold.
