Well before the labels agreed to do so. Apple had publicly expressed its desire to sell DRM-free music. 3. N o w that the labels have agreed that Apple may sell music they provide to Apple 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 without the use o f DRM, Apple sells only DRM-free music. The other major online-music stores such as Wal-Mart and Amazon that compete with Apple similarly sell music without DRM. Apple is not aware that the record labels have any plans to reinstitute a DRM requirement and Apple has no intention o f operating a music store that sells DRM music in the future. I declare under penalty o f perjury under the laws o f the United States and the State o f California that the foregoing is true and correct.
