According to BusinessWeek Sony BMG is planing on dropping DRM from its music.
In a move that would mark the end of a digital music era, Sony BMG Music Entertainment is finalizing plans to sell songs without the copyright protection software that has long restricted the use of music downloaded from the Internet, BusinessWeek.com has learned.
With Sony BMG the last of the four major labels to kill DRM - this effectively marks the death of DRM, at least for music. Woo hoo!
This is a battle won in the war on DRM. The next target, as TechCrunch pointed out is movies; as we’d all like to play our (legal) movies where, when, and how we like.
