Tesco selling new U2 album as MP3s for £3.97
TweetAs grumpy Brits, we were even more grumpy earlier this week when we found out that Amazon’s US MP3 Store was selling the new U2 album – No Line On The Horizon – for $3.99. They certainly weren’t flogging it that cheap on this side of the Atlantic.
However, supermarket Tesco has come to the rescue, with a week-long deal selling the MP3 version of the album for £3.97. It’s another sign of the digital music price war that’s threatening to erupt here, with retailers taking the hit in order to pick up market share.
Will it be just short-term gains, though? Even if not, U2 fans are the winners. At least, those who didn’t grab the album off BitTorrent when it leaked last week…
