"In what could be a watershed moment for the digital entertainment industry, leading music publisher EMI Group announced today it would provide most of its music catalog to listeners without any digital rights management restrictions."

What astounds me is that they charge more for a song without DRM. That sort of flies in the face of the music companies saying that DRM free songs will promote piracy. The first song they sell could make it out into the P2P sharing scene.
