Apple partners with the Grammys

Another leg up for Apple in the digital music industry: they've partnered with the organizers of the Grammy Awards to offer free screenings of nominated songs to voting Grammy members via the iTunes Music Store. This marks the Grammys' first taste of the the online music world.

The Recording Academy will be testing out the new partnerhip with a single Grammy category, as yet unnamed. Should be some good PR for the iTMS to have an official relationship with the 'music industry's elite,' although I would sincerely hope that the music industry's elite is already fairly well clued in to iTunes' revolutionizing of the industry?!
