Beginning today, all four major music labels — Universal Music Group, Sony BMG, Warner Music Group and EMI — and thousands of independent labels, now offer their music in the DRM-free iTunes Plus format with higher-quality 256 kbps AAC encoding. iTunes customers can also now purchase and download songs directly onto their iPhone 3G over their 3G network — just as they do with Wi-Fi today — for the same price as downloading to their computer. And in April, based on what the music labels charge Apple, songs on iTunes will be available for 69¢, 99¢, or $1.29, with most albums still priced at $9.99.

The drinkin’ tinkerers over at Instructables created the Serv O’Beer to interpret a “pouring” motion with an iPhone into a real, albeit foamy, beer. What an age we live in!

It pours the beer a bit violently, just like this previous hack, but if you’re drunk enough to insist that tipping your iPhone should result in a real beer, it should do you just fine.

Ooooooooh, black curtains! Apple says they won’t have “revolutionary” products for Macworld 2009, but maybe this means that their new products are worth the secrecy.
