Digital Audio Insider is David Harrell's blog about the economics of music and other digital content. I write from
the perspective of a musican who has self-released four albums with the indie rock band the Layaways.

Not exactly, but that's what I thought when I first saw the fees for my wife's bar exam review course. Barbri, which pretty much has a monopoly on the bar preparation market, charges a hefty additional fee if you opt for the self study option.
To be fair, I suppose the $500 rental fee is paying for the content, not just the use of the device itself. But to add insult to injury, that price doesn't include headphones -- you have to pay an additional $5 for the iPod earbuds!
"The Layaways make fine indie pop. Hushed vocals interweave with understated buzzing guitars. The whole LP is a revelation from the start." -- Lost Music
"Catchy Guided by Voices-like rockers who lay it on sweetly and sincerely, just like Lionel Richie." -- WRUV Radio
"These are songs that you want to take home with you, curl up with, hold them close -- and pray that they are still with you when you wake up." -- The Big Takeover
