Read this article: JHymn Goes Behind Atoms and Apple To Bring DRM-Free Music :: Open Source, Linux News & Software – OSDir.com :: Linux & Open Source News from Across the Community. Good stuff. I particularly like the ending:
Obviously, I rather like my iPods. And my G5 PowerMac. And my G4 PowerBook. And the nearly 900 songs I’ve purchased via iTunes. Apple should be quite happy to have customers like me.
Perhaps it’s just wishful thinking, but I don’t imagine Steve Jobs — not that his desires completely determine what Apple does — wanting to push too hard on strengthening Apple’s DRM. Any such push, if it does come, will likely come from the music industry, not Apple.
Down with DRM!
