Whats in store for the future of Digital Music?
The next version of Windows, called the “Next Generation Secure Computing Base” (NGSCB), will have some very radical security, accountability and anti-copying provisions built into it. The NGSCB is a cornerstone of the “Trusted Computing Group”, a consortium consisting of Microsoft, Intel and other entertainment and technology companies.
Our hope for the future of music is that the record labels will find a way to make it easy and convenient for people to enjoy music in a reasonable, cost effective fashion. We don’t expect any big changes in the way music is distributed to happen anytime soon. So in the meantime, enjoy Replay Music as a way to discover new music, and be sure to support the artists by buying tracks or CDs of the songs you really like.
