Yahoo offers copy-friendly music

Yahoo is finally offerring somethig that music downloaders might actually be willing to pay for... downloaded music that you can copy. Legally.

The RIAA (Ripoff the Individual Artists Association) has argued that DRM, or digital rights management, is necessary to prevent piracy of tunes, but Yahoo doesn't agree with that (blatantly self-serving) theory.

Now all I'm angry about is that the selection will be, no doubt, quite limited.
