19、hanged. But that is what happened this week when Steve Jobs, the boss of Applewhich dominates digital music with its iPod music-player and iTune music-storepublished an essay on his firms website under the unassuming title “Thoughts on Music”. At issue is digital rights management (DRM)the technolog
20、y guarding downloaded music against theft. Since there is no common DRM standard, songs purchased for one type of music player may not work on another. Apples DRM system, called FairPlay, is the most widespread. European regulators have been gunning for Apple. They regard its refusal to license Fair
21、Play as monopolistic. Since music from the iTunes store cannot be played on non-iPod music-players (at least not without a lot of fiddling), any iTunes buyer will be deterred from switching to a rival device. Last year, French lawmakers drafted a bill compelling Apple to open up FairPlay to rivals.
22、In the past, Apple has supported DRM on the grounds that it kept the pirates at bay. It described the French bill as “state-sponsored piracy”. But this week Mr. Jobs gave an alternative explanation for defending DRM: the record companies demands. They agreed to make their music available to iTunes o
23、nly if Apple agreed to protect it using DRM; indeed, they can still withdraw it if the DRM system is compromised. Apple cannot license FairPlay to others, says Mr. Jobs, because it would depend on them to produce security fixes promptly. So, he suggests, why not do away with DRM and sell music unpro
24、tected? “This is clearly the best alternative for consumers,” he declares, “and Apple would embrace it in a heartbeat.” Why the sudden change of heart? Mr. Jobs is presumably keen to get Europes regulators off his back. Rather than complaining to Apple about its use of DRM, he suggests, “those unhap
