iTunes Search with Amazon's DRM-Free store = Advantageous
by Nik Fletcher Nov 5th 2008 at 10:00AM
Thankfully, there's now a new option that allows you to make the most of Apple's excellent store: and then skip over to Amazon to actually buy the music: Advantageous. Simply run the Advantageous installer, and a script [added to your iTunes Script menu shown above] will take the currently-selected track from the iTunes store, open your default browser and load the relevant Amazon search page.
It's a neat, and above-all free, timesaver that may just provide an incentive for iTunes Store addicts to go DRM-free. Advantageous requires Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, and iTunes 8.

Believe it or not, Atari have just released a bunch of old games on their own website. These aren't clones, these aren't even 'loving interpretations' -- these are the real thing, remade by Atari themselves. This comes as part of a re-launch for the Atari website which includes an online store.
I warn you, if you read on, this might turn into more than just a mere ten-minute time-waster.

Windows version needed before Apple will consider going DRM-free due to this solution.

add a Wal-mart option too since they are cheaper at Wal-mart.

Yes, but Wal-Mart is evil. Don't do business with them.
