Hear that rumbling sound? It's a giant boulder of DRM-less Mp3 goodness barreling down on the music industry like that scene in Raiders of The Lost Arc. To kick off the year in fine mp3 positive fashion, Reuters reports on a string of news coming from all corners of the music biz. The two current "Biggies" are:
- Former EMI exec Ted Cohen has been hired by a post-lawsuit Limewire to convince labels they can "start charging its 40 million users $1 per download and share the revenue and user-behavior information with the music industry." According to the article Limewire wants this to be a DRM-free experiment.
- Amazon is pushing for a DRM free entry into the digital music market
