apple rocks

Apple never ceases to amaze me. They just "get" things, they know how to do it right. iTunes and the iTunes Music Store are the latest example. One cool thing with the second generation of the Store is that music becomes addressable. You can refer to it by URL just like books became addressable when Amazon showed up.

Try for example "First Cool Hive" by Moby

When you drag a song from iTMS into a text area you get its URL and you can also use iTunes link maker to make more sophisticated links that do the smart thing when iTunes is not present.
