You can't make software that decrypts WMA files without breaking laws in the US (DMCA). And there's no way in hell the RIAA is going to let them sell unprotected files of any kind.
As for coming up with a DRM scheme that is compatible with iPods, the only kind of DRM that will work on iPod's is encrypted AAC/Fairplay, and you'd need a license from Apple in order to use that format. Personally, I don't know if Apple would allow other sites to use this format. I don't see why they wouldn't, as it would only (IMHO) increase the attractiveness of iPods if it were compatiable with other music sites. - Posted by: worknman Posted on: 03/08/05 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
