Universal Music trialling DRM-free downloads

Tuesday, March 13th, 2007

Sort of. In France.

C’est la vie.

Universal has begun testing the viability of DRM-free downloads, albeit in a very limited release of an album by French singer-songwriter Emilie Simon.

The Live à l’Olympia recording is available in unrestricted MP3 and WMA formats through her own website for €9.99, as well as on commercial services such as iTunes with DRM at the same price.

‘We are making some micro tests,’ said Universal Music France, Middle East and Mediterranean-South America president Pascal Negre, but warned that this does not indicate any immediate change in policy.
