From Wired: “Everyone knows the MP3 format is used by more devices and people than any other file-based digital-audio format. Most also know that record labels prefer DRMed alternatives such as the ones sold by Apple’s iTunes, because they make it harder for people to share music. But… Evidence is mounting that major labels may start to prefer the MP3 format, as impossible as that used to seem.”

I really like iTunes and iPods, but I won’t deny that as a consumer non-DMR MP3 tracks being sold at Apple’s store not to mention everywhere else would be a much better thing.
