Finally Universal abandons the DRM

Whereas the other major Music producers had understood that DRM was a brake to legal purchase with little effect on piratage, Universal resisted and refused to give up its protections.
The first platform to propose their catalogue without DRM will be the English site, 7digital, who will sell the pieces encoded in 320 Kbits/s MP3. The remainder of the online retailers should follow in the not too distant future according to the contracts in progress.
