hypebot: Walmart Shutting Down DRM Download Servers

Another DRM service is going away. Walmart is dropping its DRM download service. Customers are being told to burn their music to CD’s.

Walmart  will not support the service, which is in contrast to iTunes and others.

According to Hypebot:

iTunes offered an paid upgrade to mp3’s after it made the DRM-free transition and still supports the tracks it sold with DRM. Other download services like Napster and Rhapsody were forced to extend their transitions after complaints from consumers.
