A note about iTunes Plus music.
While browsing around the Web this afternoon, I stumbled across an article on Kirkville, “iTunes Plus: No DRM, but Breadcrumbs,” discussing the new iTunes Plus music files. It says, in part:
… However, while there is no DRM (digital rights management) in these tracks, there are breadcrumbs.
If you look into an iTunes Plus file–just open one with a text editor–you’ll see both your name and your iTunes account ID….
Article author Kirk McElhearn then goes on to display the code that he found.
Funny that this additional code wasn’t mentioned in the press releases…
Kudos to Kirk for using a text editor to open a song file.
But this begs the question: What kind of person thinks of doing things like that? Obviously, a very curious one
