Audio Books Publishers to Drop DRM Sofware

The New York Times published an article yesterday publicising that "Some of the largest book publishers in the world are stripping away the anticopying software on digital downloads of audio books".

This stripping of DRM (Digital Rights Management) software will effectively allow downloaded materials to be transferred between computers, iPods, etc. It is hoped that stripping away the anticopying software will encourage a "renewed growth in the audio book business".
