End of Music DRM

Sony BMG has agreed to official start selling DRM-free MP3s through Amazon later this month. With this agreement, all of the four major music labels are providing DRM free music for the first time. DRM stands for Digitial Rights Management and basically its what prevent you from playing your music where you want, when you want. DRM-free music means what you buy is now yours to do with as you see fit (except share/sell to others). Hopefully this practice will continue with other digital content.
