The wall of DRM that surround digital downloads showed its first real cracks this week, and TMO's Chief DRM Antagonist and Editor Bryan Chaffin returns to the Context Machine to talk about it. Why now, and why like this? How will Apple benefit? What's the road ahead for DRM? And when will downloads cost only $0.50?

The Apple Weekly Report will be included in TMO's main RSS feed, and also in its own feed if you'd like to add it directly to your podcatching client.
