Canada

Online music service starts price war in
Canada 01/04/2005 12:56 PM
The battle for market share between online music services is heating up in Canada with Puretracks.com recently cutting prices on selected songs by 20 percent. A report in the Financial Post today says Puretracks.com's sale is on specific titles offered by Universal Music, including hot sellers and CDs on the year-end lists of music critics. Albums are being offered at $7.99, with individual songs priced at 79 cents. Apple's iTunes and Napster, which also operates Canadian services, did not respond to calls yesterday, according to the report. Both charge a base price of 99 cents per song and $9.99 an album. Price competition for online music has occurred more regularly in the United States, which also has more companies battling for market share. For example, iTunes charges US99 cents per track, while Wal-Mart Stores Inc. charges US88 cents and Real Networks Inc.'s Rhapsody service charges as little as US79 cents.

Man Angry At Mobile Phone Service,
Starts Throwing Phones 05/14/2004 03:14 PM
These days, with things like number portability around, if you don't really like your mobile phone provider, you can simply change providers. Apparently, that wasn't what a man in North Dakota wanted, though. He went to the local Verizon Wireless store, pissed off about something, and when yelling at employees (his original intention) didn't satisfy him, he started to fling mobile phones around the store causing $2,000 worth of damages and injuring (not badly) an employee. Of course, you have to wonder about his claim that he only intended to yell at employees. Before he started his fling fest he apparently took off his shirt (?!?) and put on safety goggles. Amusingly, this was done at a Verizon Wireless store - and Verizon Wireless tends to get some of the best marks for customer service.
