SonyBMG may be about to drop DRM

SonyBMG is reportedly about to drop DRM from its downloads, which would leave Warner Music as the only major still insisting on it.

The consensus seems to be that SonyBMG are about to announce that they will follow EMI and Universal in dropping that pesky DRM nonsense off their catalogue once and for all. The decision would mean that only Warner Music would still insist that downloads of their music be only sold with digital rights management protection included. Makes them seem "very 2003".
