DRM “not fit for purpose”
In a survey carried out by Jupiter Research, many music company executive admitted that digital rights management (DRM) was is “not fit for purpose”. The majority also thought that removing DRM from music downloads so that music could be played on any music playing device would boost sales.
At last it seems that music industry seem to be understanding that DRM is not a good idea and along with Steve Jobs (Apple CEO) who condemned DRM last week and said that it was only part of the Apple iPod and iTunes because of the music industry DRM could be on the way out.
