Nice, but still no cigar

Apple to sell DRM-free music on iTunes music store.

A definite improvement; the extra 30 cents gets you better quality and of course, no DRM. And they even let you upgrade existing tracks, which is a very nice gesture.

Still, aside from iTunes exclusives and single tracks off otherwise forgettable albums, I will continue buying physical CDs.

For roughly the same price as online, a physical CD gives me a perfect, lossless backup copy of my music, free from DRM, and I also get a printed lyrics sheet and the ability to rip the music into whatever format I prefer.
