Pay to the ISP for your iTunes downloads!
There is a new speculation in Cupertino at the headquarters that Apple may offer a new alternative for US downloaders of iTunes Store. According to the new model of Apple, iTunes users will be available to download unlimited number of digital audio from the store in exchange of a static fee which will be included in your ISP bill.
On the other side, U2’s Bono decided to start a war on illegal downloaders with helps of Yahoo and AOL. He wants the ISPs to cut off the services of users who participate in illegal file sharing. It’s also claimed that Bono asked an old friend, Steve Jobs, to join forces against bootlegging. We’re not sure but Apple’s new solution may be a response to Bono’s request.
In the end of day, nobody’s sure if this is gossip or not but if this model is the next step of Apple in the digital world, I’m begging that AT&T won’t be the only ISP within this deal.

Hey, I'm an Apple employee, working at the HQs in Cupertino, San Francisco and a fangirl. I was always obsessed with Steve Jobs when I was younger, so I ended up being a computer scientist and working at Apple. And now, I'm writing what I've spent 10 years for.
