Apple iTunes Music Store Going DRM-Free
Written by Daniel
Wednesday, 07 January 2009
The company will also offer new price points to offset competition from Amazon.com and will let iPhone users buy songs over 3G networks.

DRM free MP3 music has been available elsewhere for a long time.

Meanwhile Apple won't be stripping the DRM off tracks previously bought on iTunes.

I'm glad I never used it!
