AC/DC, Kid Rock and the Beatles are jointly trying to kill iTunes. When AC/DC releases ‘Black Ice’ next month, it will be only available at Walmart.

Similarly, Kid Rock’s ‘Rock and Roll Jesus’ is not available on iTunes. He told Ellen Degeneres that when people tell him to “...go left, I want to go right. I don’t think every song should be priced the same, it’s un-American. I may want to charge for one song and give two songs away.”

Despite the Wal-Mart exclusivity, AC/DC's Angus Young said Black Ice wouldn't show up on Apple's digital store anyway because "We don’t make singles, we make albums." iTunes allows customers to choose between single song or full album purchases. "Way back in the Seventies, we drew these figures on the back of an envelope for our record company. We showed them how much they earned from us if we sold 1 million singles and how much they earned if we sold 1 million albums," Young said. (rollingstone)
