Play.com launch MP3 download service to rival iTunes
Online retailer Play.com has launched a new MP3 download service called PlayDigital. The store now sells digital music tracks without DRM (digital rights management) copy protection, in a move it is describing as “taking on iTunes in the UK”.
All of the downloads available at PlayDigital will be in the MP3 file format. This is the most common format for digital audio, so that the widest possible range of computer media players and portable music players will be compatible with the music you download.
The top 100 tracks will cost from 65p per track and albums from £4.99. Play.com said albums in the top 100 would be available £1 cheaper than on Apple’s download service, iTunes.
Now you will be able to download DRM free music onto your iPod or any other MP3 player.
