Apple has once again released the iTunes New Music Tuesday list, and the line up is as complex as usual. Featured proudly at the top of the list is the Counting Crows with their Live from SoHo. Their description of the album:

In an ever-changing music industry where most bands are as capricious as their fickle fans, it’s rare to find a band whose absolute consistency is what makes them so great.

Also featured is Tori Amos, U2, Sugarland, and Miley Cyrus.

As always, there’s lots of new music to check out, so looks around the iTunes Store to see if any of it strikes your eye. I personally, am I looking at the U2 tracks. What about you?

“I don’t think there have been a lot of credible alternatives to iTunes, but Guitar Hero certainly has that potential.” -Bobby Kotick, chief executive of Activision Blizzard

Well, you keep thinking that Bobby. I agree that Guitar Hero has potential in the online market, but they’d be better off joining iTunes and producing a joint product where you could tag songs that you play for download later on iTunes. Will they follow that road? Probably not because there isn’t a business that hasn’t followed my lead (and probably for good reason), but it’s definitely something they should consider.
