Here's an interesting article that I picked up on El Reg this morning. Apparently, a guy is auctioning off a song that he purchased on iTunes earlier this year.

I want to see the outcome of it (the bidding is over $16,000 currently), and see if this is even possible (since you can legally sell a CD/tape that you've purchased - as long as you don't keep a copy for yourself).

I want to know, why in the world is anyone willing to pay 16,000 for one song? I dont get it.

I find the pricing more than a little baffling, to be honest.

I figure it's either people joking around like they were with the Ghost in a Jar thing, or else they're just doing it to give more money to the EFF (I'm assuming that he'll keep his word there).
