Amongst the flurry of publicity surrounding the launch of free, legal, peer-to-peer music service, Qtrax, one or two things were easy to miss.

Such as:

The Mac version won’t be available til March 18

Despite QTrax’s claims, so far the only major label to have actually signed up is Sony BMG.

Tracks feature DRM which limits their usage, specifically, you can’t burn them to CD, and some tracks have a limit on the number of times they can be played.

QTrax claims songs are iPod-compatible despite not being MP3, AAC, or Fairplay crippled, sorry, protected AAC.

Just thought you might like to know.
