Amazon mp3's: Watermarked, But Not Scarily
I wondered if Amazon was watermarking the MP3s it's selling with its newly launched service. Evidently it isn't, but some record labels do, but not in any way that allows the file to be linked to a specific purchaser.
That's good. I spent lunch comparing Amazon's selection with my music collection (and iTunes') and came up with just enough matches that I'm encouraged to look at Amazon first before buying anything: Costs less, no DRM (or fee for its lack). Finding out the files I was downloading were bugged would have been a bummer.
