AC/DC, the Australian band, has finally decided to begin selling its music in a digital format, but has shocked many with its decision to not sign with iTunes for distribution and sales.

The band has instead decided to sign a contract with Verizon V Cast for the sales and distribution of its music. This has been noted by some as a pretty dumb move--iTunes sells a lot of music. Others say it's smart, as the band can get more money from Verizon for the deal, and sign with iTunes at a later date. No matter which way you slice it, the point seems to be that some bands don't think that selling through iTunes is a fair deal.
