iTunes Allows Pre-Order of Coldplay Album

Apple announced this week that it would take pre-orders for Coldplay's newest album "X&Y" due out June 7. This is the first time iTunes, or any online store, has taken pre-orders for digital music. Upon the release of the album, Apple said it would send out an e-mail when the tracks were available for download.

The new Coldplay album will cost fans $11.99, but will include two exclusive bonus tracks, "Proof" and "Things I Don't Understand." Those who wish to get the bonus tracks will have to pre-order the album, as they will not be available to purchase after June 7. Coldplay's first track off the new album, "Speed of Sound," was released on April 19.
