Let's just say we have a hunch on this one. Sony iTunes Plus high quality AAC files coming to the iTunes store in the next few weeks/months..same deal, 256kbit quality, no DRM.

No DRM means, that your e-mail-Adress is in the music-file. This is worse than DRM, e.g. you are loosing your "aac-player" and someone is putting your music-files in a filesharing-tool.
Meh. It's rather easily removed. And if you aren't illegally sharing music with the world, you have nothing to be concerned about even if you left the email addy in there. No way on earth that's worse than DRM.

Great to hear this, but I'm guessing that if they're iTunes Plus it'll be only $0.99, seeing that hasn't been $1.29 since it first came out.
I sure hope not
I dont see anything good coming from this.
Higher Quality tracks with no
Higher Quality tracks with no drm, sounds good to me.
Why would you worry about your email address being in the music track, unless you were gonna share the file!

That story was the original announcement of iTunes Plus. Are you that desperate to criticize?

I dont think they'll ever drop the BMG. The reasons for sticking around are best known to them.
