Music Labels Experiment With Non-DRM'ed Music

Music Labels Experiment With Non-DRM'ed Music

The Wall Street Journal reports today that one of the major record companies, EMI, has launched an experiment in selling songs in unprotected MP3 format through Yahoo. The first songs are by popular balladeer Norah Jones and the Christian pop band Relient K. Senior EMI execs resisted the idea at first but "were ultimately persuaded there was a need to try fresh approaches to digital sales."
Hopefully this is only the beginning.
