Stay tuned! Windows Media was their launch point because it was available. They are planning on taking care of the Mac and Linux crowd just as soon as possible.  -- Download & listen to the music! |

join:2000-09-26 Ypsilanti, MI | reply to pianotech Its a great idea, but a no go(for myself) until they use another format other than Windows Media Audio(WMA) such as; Ogg Vorbis(with a DRM wrapper of course .) |

1 edit | reply to Kylemaul The DRM is only to insure the artist gets paid. Once you buy it, the drm goes away. Burn it, transfer it, play it on differenct pc's, etc. Remember, no label involvement at all. Plus, if you share it and someone buys it from you, then the artist still gets 50% and you get 20%. This puts the control of the music AND the money where it belongs...in the hands of the fan and artist. -- Download & listen to the music! |

| reply to pianotech I know I will. I think a lot of artists aren't happy with the RIAA either. IMO the RIAA is an unnecessary part of the music business that only contributes to higher music prices and lower musician profits.
Since the RIAA began using questionable tactics, I have only purchased CDs used, or music directly from the artist. |
