Another nail in the DRM coffin: Rhapsody launches DRM-free MP3 store

This week, online music retailer Rhapsody has launched a new DRM-free music store in the US, allowing users to download unprotected 256kbps MP3 files for $0.99 per track (or $9.99 per album). While Rhapsody is just the latest in a string of online music stores to offer DRM-free music (including Amazon's MP3 store and Apple's iTunes Plus), it bangs another nail in the coffin of DRM in the online music business. We think the move away from DRM will benefit consumers, device vendors and online music retailers, by removing one of the biggest barriers to consumer acceptance of digital music sales.

1,000 apps today, 10,000,000 iPhones tomorrow

This post is brought to you by the number 1,001. That's the news that Philip Elmer-DeWitt at Apple 2.0 brings today, that number being how many applications are available at Apple's App Store as of Monday night. As DeWitt notes, that is "roughly double" the number from just over two weeks ago when the App Store opened. To put this in further perspective, Apple announced over 10 million downloads from the App Store in the first weekend. Ten days later, during the conference call for the company's fiscal third quarter, that number had grown to 25 million. That's another big number, but it will be small next to the press release that is coming.
