Nothing what
we've already known, but today Sony
officially announced that they are shutting down their music platform Connect.
Quote:
Today Sony announced its intent to move to a Windows Media Technology platform for Walkman products in the United States, Canada and Europe. We strongly believe that the decision to embrace a more open platform will enable us to provide you with a better music enjoyment experience. As a result of this change, we will be phasing out the CONNECT Music Service, based on Sony's
ATRAC audio format, in North America and Europe. Specific timing will vary by region depending on market demand, but will not be before March 2008.

E-book users will not be affected by the shut down. Relief.
