Amazon cuts the rug

And boy am I glad. Now – I have nothing against DRM except that it usually is horribly implemented so it penalizes the honest. The idea that you have to jump through hoops to show that you own some music just takes all the fun out of it. I’d rather stop by the CD store, buy it, and have the right to copy it to my MP3 player etc. to listen.
Amazon comes along, and provides DRM-free downloads, which is nice. Now, there isn’t a perfect selection, so you have a few holes, like the wonderful, Mana-like Volver a comenzar by Cafe Tacuba, which is not available on Amazon’s downloads, so you would have to find it here.
