Facebook today launched a new music section with built-in integration with Apple’s iTunes. You find your favorite band’s page, where you can listen to new music, interact with them and their community, and even purchase tracks or albums.
Online music stores aren’t new, they’re a dime a dozen, and that’s why Facebook, instead of making its own, partnered with Apple to give users access to iTunes’s vast library. Click on the “buy now” link for any song or album and you’re taken to the music store within iTunes. Pretty slick, Facebook.

Listen to music? Ten seconds as in iTunes? Whats the point if you cant listen to the whole song? Totally meaningless.

Can’t get past the atrocious title, if you want to publish something and be taken at least half seriously CHECK YOUR FUCKING GRAMMAR!

whatchu tawkin’ ’bout Hickey? The “buy now” links in the “Music Player” can be configured to point to *any* link you want… so you could just as easily input links to AmazonMP3… Am I missing something? (if so, Face should probably make it more OBVIOUS)
