Yahoo to offer music coupons
From Times Wire Services
Yahoo Inc. is offering coupons or refunds to users who find songs they bought inaccessible after Sept. 30, when the company shuts its music-download service.
The decision to close the Yahoo Music Store had added fuel to criticisms over copy-protection measures known as digital rights management.
The firm said it was offering coupons on request for people to buy songs through Yahoo’s new partner, RealNetworks Inc.’s Rhapsody.
