Rep Power: 12  |  Music companies considering offering MP3 files for download Music companies around the world are already selling music in digital format on the web. However, this music is locked with DRM to prevent them from being pirated. However, times are changing and the companies are now considering becoming more liberal with their offerings. DRM enabled files have limitations, which sometimes cause inconvenience to consumers. If they purchase a song from Apple iTunes, they need to have an iPod to play it on the move. Similarly, music acquired from other sources is not compatible with Apple iPod. Some of the latest experiments are being conducted by Britain’s EMI Music who have signed on singer Norah Jones and rock band Relient K. music from these two are available on sale on Yahoo! Music Store as regular MP3 for a flat price of 99 cents each. Sony BMG Music Entertainment also recently tested selling an MP3 by pop diva Jessica Simpson on Yahoo Music. |
