London - In a watershed moment for the music industry, major record label EMI Music announced on Monday that it will begin selling songs free from digital rights management (DRM) -- in a higher-quality file and for a premium price -- at online retailers, starting with Apple's iTunes Store. Sony to Support Apple Digital Music FormatAuthored by dmw on May 10, 2006 - 4:10am.
San Francisco - In response to Apple's dominance of the digital music market, Sony this week made its own data compression technology that shrinks music and video files compatible with Apple's AAC format, CNET News.com reported. The change will enable the exchange of songs between iPod and Sony Walkman players via a PC, but will still not allow songs purchased from Apple's iTunes Store to play on Sony devices. Sony also included support for AAC in a software update for the Japanese version of its PSP handheld game device.
