Sony offers iTMS downloads in rootkit settlement

As soon as I read this I understood why I have a splitting headache; the sky must be falling: Sony has quickly moved to offer online music downloads, including services like Napster and "Apple Computer, Inc.'s popular iTunes" in its settlement for this rootkit debacle. The settlement is waiting to be approved by the courts,
but with the relative speed at which Sony is pushing this through, I'd imagine you won't have to twiddle your thumbs too long for this process to actually kick into gear. Check out the Ars Technica article for more specifics of the settlement.
