Apple says that "more than half" of the song total from the first week was sold in album format, rather than as singles. Assuming a conservative 12 songs per album, and one album per person, we can calculate that 500,000 songs would satisfy 42,000 customers. Assuming a conservative five downloads per person for the remaining 500,000 songs, we come up with 100,000 additional users. That's fewer than 150,000 people using the service. Good, but...In the meanwhile, take a look at Roxio's retro-Napster effort and PressPlay. We think pay per dowload (PPD) will work one day...everything just needs to work as a complete package (heard that before?). Apple is still missing the micropayment part, but their "MP3 Label" concept (our name for it) is very clever. We hear they are hosting something this weekend in Cupertino for unknown start-up bands....who knows? Will the next big trend in the music industry be online distribution? :-)R&BP.S. It is already! :-D
