Against DRM, Tell Warner Music Says DefectivebyDesign.org
DefectivebyDesign.org is once again calling for support to help stop DRM in music.
Last time it was to sign a petition to be sent to Steve Jobs asking him to follow through on his pledge to bring DRM free music through iTunes. That led to the deal with EMI and announcements from other online music stores and more recently the announcement that Universal may open some of their catalog.
Warner Music doesn't seem to see the same way as the other labels and still refuses to participate in such DRM free music and even considered a takeover of EMI to stop them distributing DRM free music. The have also recently filed lawsuit against AnywhereCD.com to stop them from distributing MP3 files with the purchase of a CD.
