Best Buy, Real and SanDisk To Launch Music Service 109
M00NIE writes "Best Buy has announced it's going to join forces with Real and SanDisk to launch a new online music store. The new technology apparently makes use of Sansa music players that support Rhapsody DNA subscriptions." From the article: "As far as technical details go, Best Buy's new service is going to be identical to Rhapsody's current offering of WMA-protected audio files with the additional features provided by Rhapsody DNA. Rhapsody DNA is based on Real's Helix DRM and gives users the ability to access their content across different types of devices, and provides what RealNetworks describes as an "end-to-end music experience" similar to the closed ecosystem approach that Apple uses and Microsoft will be using with the Zune."

Best Buy, Microsoft DRM and Real.
Could they possibly have come up with a better combo for me to rush out and ignore?
Free coupons for the store when you subscribe to AOL, and with your first purchase you get a free Kevin Federline track.
Anyone else?
