That's the only question that needs to be asked to Yahoo following the statement by Yahoo Music chief Dave Goldberg that record labels should sell music without copy protection.

Everyone knows that the DRM-infestation that has ruined online music and put the screws to consumers to buy multiple copies of the same thing is horse manure (to put it mildly).

But until one big company who has both skin in the game and enough mindshare to kick-start a movement calls foul and stops pushing this crap on consumers, this is just a soundbite. There's no need to "prompt industry-wide discussion." It's being discussed now, but since the record label cartel has all the bargaining power, we're not getting anywhere.

The prospect of getting booted off of Yahoo's music service would create enough bargaining power to at least bring the record labels to the negotiating table.

Yahoo, tell the record label cartel no. Make your music store DRM-free. Don't toss out some unwanted, non-binding advice.

Take a stand. Make it happen.
