[ad#ad2-right]A report from last week brought to AppleInsider‘s attention by French technology site ElectronLibre asserts that it’s now “clear” Apple will spark new interest in its music store by removing DRM from tracks published by Sony, Universal and Warner on December 9th.

Although, this is somewhat unlikely I’ve got my own theories on this. You see If Apple did this tomorrow that would be a BIG deal, due to the fact that Microsoft will be releasing there patches on the same day. I find it would be a momentous occasion.
[ad#ad2-left]I can only guess why and the guess is just a guess. If Itune’s did remove there DRM the same time as Microsoft Patch Tuesday, I’d have to guess they will co-inside because of the difficulty of using the DRM, Digital Rights Management, on other products. For example, Windows Media Player . If Apple decided to approach Microsoft and come up with a way to make sure all DRM is stripped this would be the ideal situation. Although this is highly unlikely, I’d have to think Apple wouldn’t wait till tomorrow to strip the DRM. They know Microsoft schedule. We will have to find out in the coming days.
