7digital.com, an online digital music store, has said that sales of DRM-free music from major record labels such as EMI and Warner have surged by about 300% since they were first introduced.
7digital.com now plays second fiddle in the UK only to Apple’s iTunes store. The store for legal music downloads saw sales for the year ending in June skyrocket 300%. DRM-free MP3s are the future of music and have proved infinitely more popular than restricted WMA files.
Many Internet users aren’t keen on Apple’s AAC files and so are turning to stores such as 7digital.com for their music downloads.
About 80% of the legal music downloads available in the 7digital.com store are DRM-free. MP3 downloads are perhaps the future of the music industry and, let’s face it, restricted music files are nothing but a pain in the ass.
