Abstract: This article explores how Apple's business model makes use of content licensed from third-party music labels that is in digital format, and how it delivers the service to consumers over the internet.

Since the music labels have in effect conceded distribution of their products to Apple, for one, Apple has found itself in the middle, at once adhering to its contractual duties under agreements with the music labels, while enticing customers and profiting from its user-friendly interface and platform. Apple must both control content - to avoid lawsuits, and sell the content - to continue its iTunes service.
