Apple's chief executive, Steve Jobs, will attend a press conference alongside Eric Nicoli, his counterpart at EMI, in London at 1pm today. According to reports over the weekend, they will announce that EMI is ditching the anti-piracy technology that currently restricts how people can copy and listen to their digital music tracks.
