There are rumors sweeping the internet that Amazon will be soon be opening an MP3 music store that sells DRM free music. Earlier this month, an article in The Register suggested that ITunes sales were down due to DRM. With Amazon’s partnership with mobipocket and its ereader, the rumored Kindle, I do wonder what that means for books.
