NxtUp...Apple Rumor

iTunes Subscriptions?

CNet's Tom Krazit has the word that this September might bring more than a new iPod model: an Apple tipster has let slip something about a $129 yearly iTunes subscription service that would work with MobileMe, called iTunes Unlimited:

* 256 Kbps music; highest quality digital music subscription service ever

* 50% of U.S. store available for iTunes Unlimited at launch, U.S.-only launch

* Available through iTunes or retail box a la MobileMe, funds applied through iTunes gift cards cannot be used towards subscription purchase

* $129.99 stand-alone or $179.99 with MobileMe, current MobileMe subscribers can add iTunes Unlimited for $99.99

* One-year subscription period

* Current a la carte options unchanged

* When signed in to subscription account, "Buy" is "Get"

* "Download and Play throughout iTunes Unlimited Subscription" or "Buy and Keep"

* "Buy and Keep" option available for downloaded subscription songs, purchased version replaces subscription version

* Late October launch with iTunes 7.8
