EMI Music Testing non-DRM Music Downloads

EMI Music is testing the scary, scary unrestricted music waters by releasing two DRM-free MP3s. The tunes--Norah Jones's "Thinking About You" and Relient K's "Must Have Done Something Right" will cost 99 cents at Yahoo's music store, but will lack any sort of copy protection, which means you can load them up on everything from your iPod to your Zune. Let's hope the experiment is a success so that more stores can consider following the eMusic model, which, despite its lack of tunes from major labels, has sold close to 100 million songs to date.
