Play.com Open DRM-free Music Store

Music

Big, big kudos to play.com for opening their DRM free music store. I have not bought any music from them yet, but have bought bags of DVDs, games and albums from them. Great to see them getting in on the digital downloads game, and great to see DRM not used. All in all, I am pretty happy, and they have a nice meaty metal collection too. :)

    Too bad it’s for UK residents only, though. (But at least some of the same music is available DRM-free from iTunes Music Store, too, at the same price, more or less. And there’s always emusic.com, where everything is DRM-free.)

    Looks nice, except for this:

    At present, we are only able to offer PlayDigital music for purchase to customers with a UK billing address.

    That makes sense. How else could they mail me the bits?

    I was so excited then so completely disappointed to find that it’s not available for the USA. :(

    Yeah it is a shame that it is regional, but y’know, I live in the UK, so I am happy – the key thing is that it is another no-to-DRM store opening, which is always a good thing. :)
