Imagine: a world without DRM
There have been murmurs in the blogosphere of late regarding the imminent demise of DRM. Apparently record labels are almost ready to concede that it’s in their best interest to abandon business strategies that hobble most of their customers in order to avoid wrongdoing by a select few.
These rumblings have been given added credibility by a post published today on apple.com by Steve Jobs himself, outlining the possibilities for the sale of music online in the future. Mr. Jobs seems to clearly favor selling non-DRM music. I hope this means the record labels are ready to acquiesce on this matter.
