E-Commerce News: E-Commerce: Yahoo Doubling Price of Music Service

E-Commerce News: E-Commerce: Yahoo Doubling Price of Music Service: "Effective Nov. 1, Yahoo will charge about US$120 annually for access via download to more than 1 million songs that can then be transferred to portable players. The Internet powerhouse has been charging just under $60 annually -- a price most industry observers predicted wouldn't last when Yahoo entered the market in early May.
Subscribing to the service on a monthly basis will cost $11.99, up from $6.99 under the initial pricing plan. That's closer to but still below services from Napster and RealNetworks (Nasdaq: RNWK) , which each charge just under $15 per month."

Bummer...
