iTunes releases higher-quality DRM-free tracks from EMI

About freakin' time.

Personally I think that the price is too high for individual tracks, but I will almost certainly upgrade all my existing iTunes tracks to the new format just so that I no longer have to do the DRM dance when I shift machines, etc. And the added quality is definitely a bonus.

Re: Quality

You know, that's a good point: it's often possible to get good quality on the cheap...it's just hard to be sure that that's what you're going to get (or hard to find, or both). This applies to a very wide variety of things, now that I think about it. *ponder*

This is why nobody likes me.

Oh, don't worry, I'm sure that even if you started accepting the offers of wine and strippers that people would find other reasons to dislike you (such as your belief that many of the problems our society faces can actually be addressed and solved by someone who's willing to do so, and need not keep messily bleeding all over the floor, sometimes all too literally). :)
