Kudos to EMI for their deal with iTunes to offer DRM-free songs on iTunes. It seems Steve Job's has also put his money where his mouth is.

What's amazing is that it's taken this long for the big boys in the music industry to realise that DRM is flawed by the laws of economics and physics. Other companies like eMusic realised this a long time ago.

No matter how they dress it up as a "premium" service, this hopefully signals the end of DRM protected media. RIP DRM.

A new video takes an amusing take on trying to explain Creative Commons licensing.

You have to respect people who put this much effort into making the boring but important topic of licensing interesting. See here for previous videos on the same topic.
