2004 Digital Media Winners and Losers

An anonymous reader writes "MP3 Newswire has just released Richard Menta's annual digital media winners and losers list. Apple tops the winners list for the second year in a row as does eDonkey and last spring's Grey Album protest. Losers include the term iPod Killers, Winamp, and the WMA format. BitTorrent made both lists. Menta also released a 2005 wishlist. Topping that list is an iPod in-dash unit similar to the old Rio Car. You can see Menta's previous years winners and losers lists."

    Its becoming obvious that a totally open non-DRM format is a precondition for digital music.
    If that's a precondition I can't wait until such a thing as digital music exists... that will be sweet!

    I'm very sorry, I didn't mention I was a mac user, all I have been doing is clicking "import" (only once per cd btw), do I need an education in verbose, are you willing to teach me? ;)
