It happened! EMI is releasing DRM free music on iTunes and the files will have twice the bitrate. Could this be the beginning of the end of DRM? It seems like this might signal that business is hearing the market. Apple tends to be on the edge of reading the market trends though, so even if this is the beginning it will likely be a long and painful death for DRM. Hopefully it won’t cause anymore pain for consumers than it already does.
