Steve Jobs and digital rights management
Apple’s Steve Jobs has appealed to the recording industry in his “Thoughts on Music” to allow companies to sell music without digital antipiracy protection. Essentially, music that is now sold in a digital format is not standardized and therefore cannot be played on “just any” digital music player. Jobs says that the protection on the music really isn’t solving piracy, so it ought to be removed to allow users to play music on a variety of players. That would help expand the market for digital music.
