DRM-free music: EMI calls the tune and Apple takes the credit

Jacob Smith

Reasoning?

"EMI will offer its catalog DRM-free,[is] at least dangerous and potentially disastrous."

Where do you qualify this statement? You have written the entire article based on the assumption that DRM is a good thing, but you never state what makes it so.

Please follow up with the reasoning on this assumption.

Until you do, I shall file this away as "FUD."

Ditto

My thoughts exactly.

All "Open" XML will do is help Microsoft force OO.o and other competing office suites out of the market.
