Wow, great visual timeline. It was really interesting to see it laid out like that.

It should be interesting to see how long it takes for Apple to hit another major milestone with other mediums like TV shows and (with the iPad) ebooks.

Bob, unless Im mistaken, iTunes songs are all DRM free and play with any modern music App.

It would be great, if you did not need have to use install itunes + quicktime and the files would play an any mp3 player. Till then Ill stick with amazon MP3 or emusic, the music is cheaper on amazon anyway.

I just got Comcast digital cable and get those streaming music channels that display trivia while you listen. The trivia on music distribution makes me laugh because it’s all about CDs and no mention of iTMS.
