Making the music available DRM-free, "... means that Amazon MP3 customers are free to enjoy their music downloads using any hardware device, including PCs, Macs(TM), iPods(TM), Zunes(TM), Zens(TM), iPhones(TM), RAZRs(TM), and BlackBerrys(TM); organize their music using any music management application such as iTunes(TM) or Windows Media Player(TM); and burn songs to CDs.", according to the press release. Most of the services catalog of 2 million songs are available for download at 89 cents to 99 cents with albums ranging from $5.99 to $9.99. It's a nice compliment to Amazon's online CD sales.
