They're an online music store that seems to get surprisingly little attention.  I've been using them for a year, their prices are about 1/4 of what iTunes charges, and everything they sell is DRM-free.  Of course you won't find anything there from the Big Five, but if you're interested in stuff from smaller labels, or in discovering music you might not be familiar with, they can't be beat.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Benjamin Warde]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 23rd 2007 8:30PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Amazon readying DRM-free online music store?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/23/amazon-readying-drm-free-online-music-store/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/23/amazon-readying-drm-free-online-music-store/</guid><description><![CDATA[Yes, we all know about emusic.  I wouldn't say they get "surprisingly little attention" - in almost every article I've read lately about online music, they at least get a mention.<br><br>They sell indie music, which is great, but you can't expect them to get as much attention as the big retailers.  That's the nature of being indie.  An indie label that gets as much attention as a major label is called a major label (and the same extends to retailers).  That's basically what EMI is - they're often called the "world's largest indie label" both because of their artist lineup and their relative lack of corporate affiliations.  But because of their size, they're considered a major.  But it's no surprise that they're the first of the "majors" to go DRM-free.<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jeff]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 23rd 2007 9:49PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Amazon readying DRM-free online music store?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/23/amazon-readying-drm-free-online-music-store/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/23/amazon-readying-drm-free-online-music-store/</guid><description><![CDATA[You must be reading different articles than I am.  In any case, they sure weren't mentioned in this article, thus my post.  But it's comforting to hear that it turns out we all know about emusic already.  Guess I'll stop worrying.  :-)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Benjamin Warde]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 23rd 2007 10:59PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Amazon readying DRM-free online music store?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/23/amazon-readying-drm-free-online-music-store/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/23/amazon-readying-drm-free-online-music-store/</guid><description><![CDATA[This type of competition is great.
