My problem is that Apple got a very good deal to start with and fleeced alot of people. Lets be honest they don't do much, certainly not enough to justify a 20% cut. So with their cut now under threat as the record labels start wondering why Apple gets so much money for so little, they accuse everyone else of greed, when they themselves have spent the last few years being epically greedy.

Apple doesn't do much?

They host the servers, make the software, etc..and pay all the bandwith costs! This isn't a trival undertaking.

And, er, lets just say I'm rather more inclined to trust the company that hasn't been convicted of price fixing..in this case that'd be Apple.
