Universal Music answer Sandlines call to action on MP3 downloads

MP3 = Universal Music format

… and it’s a yes!!!

Well, perhaps I shouldn’t really try to claim credit for this, but right after I blogged (below) about how Universal and Sony should embrace the brave world of DRM-free music and allow their catalogue to be sold as MP3, I found myself looking at the 7Digital site and lo, there’s a whole swag of Universal’s various labels all offering MP3 format downloads.

That means artists like U2, The Killers, The Cure, Amy Winehouse, Sam Sparro, Kanye West, Jay Z… quite a long list.

I feel a spending spree coming on…
