Spitzer looking into digital music pricing

NY State Attorney General Eliot Spitzer, having recently slapped the music industry over the resurrection of “payola” is now looking into the pricing of digital music, seeing if any laws might have been broken:

Aline van Duyn, writing for MarketWatch, reported on Monday that Warner and Sony have confirmed receiving the subpoenas but EMI and Universal representatives were unavailable for comment. A spokesman for Mr. Spitzer told her: “It is too early to call it an investigation. It is a preliminary enquiry for information.”
