Will BigPond MP3 music deal hurt iTunes Store?

Opinion and Analysis

Another aspect that could help BigPond achieve dominance over the iTunes Store is that - like Apple - it already has a network of retailers selling prepaid cards that do away with the need for a credit card when buying music online.
