Don’t get me wrong, Steve Jobs is a genius, he knows what people want and when the right [...]
Apple iTunes Now 3rd Largest Music Retailer In US
Apple iTunes is now the third largest retailer of music in the US with a 9.8% market share, according to a study just released by NPD Group MusicWatch, which measured both physical and downloadable music sales in the first quarter of 2007.
What I found particularly interesting is that iTunes now sells more music than Amazon.com, [...]
How To Remove Personal Information From iTunes DRM-free Songs
I knew it wouldn’t take long for a way to remove personal information from iTunes DRM-free songs. Apple still haven’t explained why they are adding name and buyer information to tracks, but it’s pretty safe to assume that it’s to track who is sharing music.

Yahoo Say Removing DRM From Music Will Boost Sales
Slowly, but surely DRM is going out of favour. Last week we had Steve Jobs calling for DRM to be removed from music, and now we have Dave Goldberg, head of Yahoo Music, doing the same:
