To kick off its iPod-compatible “Harmony” music download service (which works inside of RealPlayer), RealNetworks is offering a limited-time half-price sale, selling online downloads for just $.49, as well as half-price albums. This is separate from Real’s streaming Rhapsody service, although Real plans to add the Harmony songs to that service as well later in the year. The upshot of all of this? Ignoring Wal-Mart’s initial lower-price entry into the music download space, this could be the start of the first legal music downloading price war. Apple probably won’t flinch (yet), but hopefully this is a sign of lower prices all around in the near future.
