http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughtsonmusic/ I'd say that "promote" is a bit of a strong word. In particular, he said that Apple would embrace DRM-free music. He said nothing that implied promition, other than saying that users/customers of the big music comapnies can convince them to change. Don't forget, if Apple themselves are preceived as promoting something the music companies perceive as a threat to their revenue stream, they could decide to take their toys and go home. It is still a bold step, though. Regards, -Roberto -- Roberto C. Sanchez http://people.connexer.com/~roberto http://www.connexer.com
