Just one song for now (Jessica Simpson - A Public Affair), but Yahoo Music's statement on their blog is very interesting to me:
Our position is simple: DRM doesn’t add any value for the artist, label (who are selling DRM-free music every day — the Compact Disc), or consumer, the only people it adds value to are the technology companies who are interested in locking consumers to a particular technology platform.
Thank you Yahoo, for noticing that consumers don't like crippled products.
They're on point for the first time in the last decade.

Meh. One song, and by Jessica Simpson.
Basically, they're just using this DRM-free status as free advertising.

I agree with them on DRM, but this ain't happening.
