  惠特尼·休斯顿的歌迷指责苹果“发死人财”,在这位流行乐天后去世后,苹果在线音乐商店iTunes中其热门专辑的价格上涨。

  Her Ultimate Collection album, released in 2007, has increased by $4.70 to $12.60, according to Digital Spy.

  根据英国娱乐和媒体新闻网站Digital Spy报道,2007年惠特尼发表的精选集的售价上涨了4.7美元,目前的售价是12.6美元。

  It comes after the singer, whose most famous hits include I Will Always Love You and I Wanna Dance With Somebody, was found dead in her Los Angeles hotel room on Saturday afternoon at the age of 48.

  现年48岁的美国歌手惠特尼·休斯顿在周六晚上被发现死于洛杉矶的希尔顿酒店中。惠特尼脍炙人口的歌曲包括I Will Always Love You,I Wanna Dance With Somebody等。

  Digital Spy网站报道说,很多音乐迷指责苹果借机“发死人财”,更有乐迷称苹果公司应该就此感到“羞愧”。

  One customer said: 'To say I am angry is an understatement and I feel it is just a case of iTunes cashing in on the singer's death, which in my opinion is totally parasitic. The album itself is great so please don't be put off purchasing it, just [know] that you will merely be lining some fatcat's pocket before Whitney's lifeless body is cold.'

  乐迷留言:“气愤已经不足以形容我现在的感受,我认为苹果这种行为无异于寄生虫,他们在发‘死难财’。这张唱片本身非常精彩,所以请不要推迟购买,不过请记住苹果是在惠特尼尸骨未寒的时候就开始漫天要价。”

  目前有8张惠特尼的专辑名列iTunes下载前100名,其中一张精选集The Greatest Hits名列首位,还包括她在1985年的首张同名专辑的原唱和特别版。
