Apple today announced several changes to the iTunes store, most notable of which is that the company is eliminating digital rights management (DRM) from their downloads. The change comes at a cost however, Apple bending to the recording industry's long-standing demand for variable pricing. Apple's now delivering single tracks for 69 cents, 99 cents and $1.29 -- with the price tag determined by the major labels and a song's popularity and/or age. Apple also announced that iPhone users can now preview and purchase the entire iTunes Store via the 3G network, something previously restricted to Wi-Fi."
