p2pnet.net News:- RealNetworks says on April 26, it will unveil a groundbreaking initiative in digital music.

Real`s last groundbreaking initiative came when Apple wouldn’t allow music from the RealPlayer ‘Music Store’ to be ‘transferred’ to iPods.

So Real launched Harmony, a jHymn look-alike which lets people buy Real tracks and hear them on iPods, whether Apple likes it or not.

Back to the coming unveiling, it`ll be interesting to see if the phrases `p2p` or `peer-to-peer` or `legal downloading` or ‘copyright protection’ (or anything similar to them ; ) appear anywhere.

Something you think we should know?
