Amazon launch mp3 store in UK

It’s typical, I buy some tunes from the iTunes Store and then the very next day Amazon announce their new mp3 Store for the UK!

Though the songs I got from the iTunes Store were iTunes Plus (ie DRM free) the mp3 files from Amazon are encoded at 256 Kbps compared to the 128 Kbps at iTunes.

Hearing about the US version on MacBreak Weekly I am pleased to see we now have our own version here in the UK.

See what they have at the Amazon.co.uk MP3 Store including lots of albums for £3.
