Default Get Your iTunes Pass for Extra Content

http://arstechnica.com/apple/news/2...-pass-promo.ars

"Depeche Mode fans will be the first to try out the new iTunes Pass system, sort of a Season Pass for a particular band or album. Buying an iTunes Pass with give fans access to exclusive extra songs, videos, and other content for a limited time."

The new feature was unveiled today by EMI in iTunes. The tracks will be DRM-free, obviously, and fans will get extra content that won't be available to the general public when the album ($9.99 USD) is released on April 21st. This pass will be good until June 16th, so fans will get extras periodically over the next 15 weeks. I would hope you got a lot of extra material for double the cost of the normal album, sounds like this is going to be something for the Über fan.

So it's like a wanna-be Zune Pass? Hehe, sorry, I just couldn't resist.

Actually, it reminds me more of "Ultimate Extras." I hate this idea so much.
