Up to this point, if you "bought" music from the iTunes Music Store (iTMS) you could play that music on your iPod, on that computer, adn on a couple other authorized computers.

You could not play thos songs on your Sony/Creative/Samusung/ or any other MP3 player*. If your computer got screwed up somehow, those songs were lost.

Now, songs from EMI can be downloaded and played on any MP3 player you own. You can copy these songs to any computer you own, with no issues, and use the songs any way you want to use them (maybe use a computer to make a jukebox).



* There are ways of getting around the problems, the most common of which is burning the songs to a CD (which, by definition, do not have DRM), then rip the CDs back to MP3s.
