About this siteFor six years, the Internet Nexus served as my technology blog, but I've since started blogging at the SuperSite Blog instead. If you're looking for the blog, please head there. --Paul Friday, March 09, 2007Music's New GatekeeperI subscribe to the online version of the Wall Street Journal, but I actually received the print version today in error (no doubt a substitution carrier) and noticed a fantastic article looking behind the scenes at Apple's iTunes operation. Looking at the Web version of the site, I would have absolutely missed this otherwise. It's a great read:Every day, the roughly one million people who visit the iTunes Store home page are presented with several dozen albums, TV shows and movie downloads to consider buying -- out of the four million such goods the Apple site offers. This prime promotion is analogous to a CD being displayed at the checkout stands of all 940 Best Buy stores or featured on the front page of Target's ad circular.Related: Print version of the above article
