The Final Days of DRM: Yahoo Music Store Closing

This is one of the best reason’s to never have supported a company that offered DRMed music. Say, “So long” to hundreds if not thousands of dollars of your hard earned money that you spent on it. You’d better find a way around that DRM if you want to keep your music, that you rightfully purchased. Imagine that, if you bought a CD, you could rip it until your little hearts content, regardless of how many computers you owned.
When the Yahoo! Music Store closes its doors this fall, the company announced today, past customers dependent on their music “phoning home” to get license approval before playing are out of luck. Just another reason DRM should die forever.
