iTunes-Google deal rumor


A . According to TheStreet.com, shares of Apple "set an all-time high on Friday following a disappointing report from Dell and amid rumors about a major new partnership. According to market chatter, Apple is set to announce a deal with Google calling for Google to offer Apple's iTunes music store through its own site. The rumored deal would pair the nation's leading online music store with its leading search engine." The report quotes an options strategist at Theflyonthewall.com as saying that that "there's 'speculation of an iTunes launch. Google is going to offer iTunes somehow on their platform."

    go stock go

    finally, I'm back in the black and making some $$ -- Hopefully this rumor plays out.

    Then hopefully Apple will announce a worthy Powermac or Powerbook update and then follow that with the iTunes phone from Motorola (finally!)

    All good for Macfanatics and shareholders :thumbup:

    I hear ya! I'm in the same boat. However, if this iTunes/Google rumor is proved false, grab your parachute. And please, break my fall.

    If it proves false, I'm selling and will buy back in. I got in late and my post split shares are ~$42.50, so I'd like to at least cover the fees :)

    Sorry, unless Apple releases Quicktime, which is needed to decode all this DRM c*** of theirs, on any platform buy OS X and Windows XP/2000, platform dependence still lives.

    "Excellent!!!" Let's see the Evil Empire put a negative spin on this one. Amazing the way they manage to lead and innovate...from behind! Saw "The Island" the other night and nearly choked when all the "Information Portal's" were MSN and NOT Google! C'mon, that's way too grim a view of the future!
