The legal scuffle between EMI and MP3tunes began in September 2007 when, in a letter that accused MP3tunes of a wide range of illicit actions ... The attorney didn't want to discuss [anything], and instead quickly demanded a "substantial sum for past infringement" be paid to EMI ... While the lawsuit says "EMI" I think the RIAA is advocating this legal fight as much as any individual label or entity ... By attacking the Music Locker, EMI is attacking the right to personal ownership of digital property. I believe people should be able to listen to their music anywhere they want, and on any device that suits them — this is why we buy it.""

There was a collective, "WTF" when this happened as this is 2007, not 1997. Now it appears that reports are out that Walmart has completely turned off the ability to get into the application at all by Firefox, Safari or any other browser it does not like."
