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.

Legaly download another 25 million songs via Qtrax
It seems we need a converter for this DRM from Qtrax to get the music on a MP3 player. Because 2008 is the year DRM will die I think this service has to disable the DRM themselves at the end of this year to stay in business. For now lets wait for the DRM player to come online.

SeeqPod
I normally hear about Web 2.0 sites on Podcasts I listen to or see something about them on the net. SeeqPod escaped my attention until Warner Music Group sued them this week. Because 2008 is the year DRM will die we will see more suing this year by the old Music industry. They have a hard time adopting to a word where Young people don’t want CD’s anymore. They just want to download music to their phone or MP3 player. They will not stop this movement away from CD’s by suing sites like SeeqPod I think.

DRM is almost dead
2008 is the year DRM will die. YouTube, Podcasting and MP3 players are forcing classic media companies to adapt to this new environment with new business models. Yesterday, Viviane Reding, European Union commissioner for information society and media, issued a report sanctioning a “transparent” DRM framework for the EU. More
