The Nokia Music Store becomes Ovi Music; No DRM !

So I just got this email from the Nokia Music Store India.

And apparently the Nokia Music Store, is becoming “Ovi Music“. The rename might not be much news, but the fact that the Tracks on the Store are now going to be DRM-Free, sure is !

Nokia Music will soon become Ovi Music. This means all the tracks you download will be DRM-free, MP3 files that you can now play on a PC, Mac or any personal music player! Plus, as part of the change to Ovi, we’ve enhanced our search capability so it’s easier than ever to find the music you want.

What you need to do:

Absolutely nothing. We will create a Nokia Account for you and send you an email when we become Ovi music. Until then, try to avoid changing any of your Nokia Music account details such as password, email address and mobile number.

As part of the move to Ovi Music we will be creating a Nokia Account for you. If you do not wish to use Ovi Music and no longer wish to have a Nokia Account you can email us in next 5 days. By using these services, you accept the Ovi Music Terms, Ovi Service Terms and the Privacy Policy. You may not use the services if you don’t accept the terms.

If you head on over to Music.Ovi.com you’ll see the Store is now located there instead (Still redirects to Music.Nokia.com for now, and Still only usable on Internet Explorer D’oh).

All I can say is, about Freakkin Time ! Bring on the No-DRM-ness already ! I cant wait !

As the Email said, if you’re a regular user of the Nokia Music Store, do try to avoid making changes to it, until the change to Ovi Music has happened !

What do you think ? Is the DRM-free shindig worth the name change ? Do let us know in the comments section below y’all !
