Amazon.com has began testing a digital-music download service to compete with Apple’s iTunes.

The service, called Amazon MP3, sells 2 million songs from more than 180,000 artists, Amazon.com said today in a statement. The songs, most priced from 89 cents to 99 cents, don’t have software that restricts how customers can play the music.

Amazon.com said the service would include songs from more than 20,000 record labels. The tracks will be available in the MP3 format without anti-copying programs known as digital rights management, or DRM, software.

Customers can play the songs on almost any device, including Apple’s iPod and iPhone, Zunes, Research in Motion Ltd.’s BlackBerry and transfer them to CDs.
