  DRM-protected music stores went extinct over a decade ago, following Steve Jobs open letter to the music industry on the topic.

    Wow, you are right! I was confused about iTunes, because it seems to require an app, but it is DRM-free together and so is Amazon Music. That’s great! So I guess only Spotify has DRM.

      All the streaming services use DRM, it’s just download stores that are DRM-free. Which makes sense, when you buy an album, you should own it.

        I see, that makes sense. But I also think that every content that you have paid to access should be DRM-free, so even in a streaming service.
