Sony DMS Music store will close March 31, 2008
Sony will phase out the CONNECT™ DRM Music Service in the U.S. and Canada. You are advised to burn CD’s from your DRM files now.
- To ensure continued access to your content, we strongly recommend that customers archive their library to audio CD’s and/or make a backup using SonicStage
They do not ensure the DRM content will work after March 31, 2008. A lot of people will lose their collections because Sony is not warning their customers in TV spots or on their site. If you read this blog you know your DRM files will also die this year and perhaps already made a backup or ripped your own content ;-) Now Sony strongly recommends you to do this! More info.

What the ****… But I’ve paid for an unlimited license, not for one that would expire so quickly. And I really don’t want to burn all my DRM WMAs to countless audio CDs, where am I suppose to store them?!
Since I’ve already paid for a license to listen to the songs, I guess it’s more or less legal to redownload them as MP3s. That would be my advice.
