A Year After ITunes Plus, Competition Heats up

A year ago, if you wanted to purchase and download music without digital rights management--aka DRM, the protection scheme that controls what you can do with your digital media--your choices were few and far between. Some small outfits, such as eMusic, sold DRM-free music, though not usually from the major labels. And while other services, such as Yahoo Music, had toyed with DRM-free releases, it was only for limited promotions. But the vast majority of digital music available online, from vendors like Apple, Microsoft, and Napster, used some form of DRM to protect its content.

TuneCore: Get yourself on iTunes for $30

Industrial goth rocker Trent Reznor isn't usually mentioned in the same sentence with artists like Over the Rhine and Steven Delopoulos, but all three have something in common: in the last year, the bands ditched record labels altogether. Instead, they're part of a bold new experiment that could let artists hang onto more rights, make more money, and go directly to fans. It's possible through a startup called TuneCore that let all three bands get their music into digital stores like eMusic and iTunes... for just $30 a year. All royalties—and all rights—remain with the artists.
