A very interesting development courtesy of the BBC:
EMI said every song in its catalogue will be available in the “premium” format. It said the tracks without locks will cost more and be of higher quality than those it offers now.
These DRM free tracks will cost 99 pence on iTunes, but apparently that’s only for single tracks, you will be able to buy an entire album DRM free for the same cost as one with DRM. Steve Jobs said:
The right thing to do is to tear down walls that precluded interoperability by going DRM-free and that starts here today.
