Despite free education, a free national health service and one of the best government tolerability towards immigrants in the world, living the UK isn’t that great. More importantly 
, UK has poor Internet speeds compared to Eastern Asian countries, late in getting the latest movies, music and technology. But one thing UK people are happy about, is the weakening dollar. With everyone flocking to American shopping websites and eBay USA, it means UK people are happy to enjoy buying products from USA when the price is much lower than in the UK.
This also applies to digital music shops. At the lowest price of $0.09 per track offered by LegalSounds, that means (approx) £0.045 for UK customers. At an average of 12 tracks per album, it comes to £0.54 per album. Play.com offers albums at around £6.99 each, so its common for UK customers to be pleased to live in the UK for once, as the find their digital music from shops like MP3Sale, Legalsounds, MP3Fiesta etc..
It’s true, UK consumers can pretty much chose the price of any album they want - to the point where they can listen to it and often download it for free. Consumers are in the driving seat and are leading the industry on how they want to receive their music and how and how much they want to pay. We7’s ad-funded model and it’s growing popularity is testament to this - the old adage “the customer is always right” still rings true.
