As expected from yesterday's rumor from Ars Technica, Apple changed the price of tracks available in the iTunes Plus catalog (DRM-free, 256kps encoding) from 1.29 to 0.99.
So, Amazon-driven competition seems to have forced Apple to align its price for DRM-free tracks. This is a good point as it will open the offer to all AAC compatible digital music player owners.
And hackers spending their time to remove DRMs might better concentrate on unlocking the power of iPhone hardware.
