Apple iTunes 7.2 with Support for DRM-free Music and Vista

Apple is finally selling DRM-free music from EMI on their online music store. Inorder to enjoy the unprotected music which plays on any device, you’ll need to have iTunes 7.2 and pay additional $.30 (which makes it $ 1.29 per song)

Well, being unprotected doesn’t really mean it’s safe for piracy. Whatever you buy from iTunes Plus will embed your account info into your music, so if someone goes out of their way and share it over p2p, lawyers will get hands on them.

Apple also announced iTunes U (Universities). It lets colleges host digital content on their own iTunes site, so as to enable students to download whatever content they need to their Mac, PC or iPod.

  • Hardly anything works with Vista. Microsoft should do massive improvements with Vista because it's causing a lot of problems for a lot of people.
  • Note that playing on "any device" actually means "any device that supports AAC" (Advanced Audio Coding). AAC is the industry successor to MP3, but has not yet reached the extremely widespread deployment of the MP3 format. I haven't done much research on the current adoption numbers, but any modern music player worth its cookies should support the format, even though it requires a licensing fee to include in players (as does MP3).
  • Hope to see all the tracks in Bittorrent soon (they have included the account names , so you have to convert it)
