We all know who rules the roost when it comes to downloaded music sales. But who's number two? The answer may surprise you.
In the 18 months since the relaunch of eMusic, the company has clawed its way to the number two position among digital download services (this does not include streaming music). Pakman claims that eMusic has 12 percent of the market compared to Apple's 61 percent, and that his company has now sold more than 60 million songs.

Ars looks at eMusic to discover how it has made a thriving business out of selling DRM-free music in an open format.
