Thoughts on Music
Steve Jobs has recently posted his “Thoughts on Music”.
Its very well worded; mainly, I think, to try to push any responsibility for DRM onto the big four (Universal, EMI, Sony BMG and Warner). Still it is interesting to note that Steve, and hence Apple inc., would drop DRM in a heartbeat if they didn’t feel shackled by the music companies. Obviously this is passing the buck a little. At least publicly they don’t appear to be putting pressure on anyone to change this behaviour. This open letter is definitely just the start of their response to a court case heading Apples way from Norway.
