UNLESS YOU JUST PIRATE EVERYTHING AND DECIDE NOT TO WASTE 1000s OF DOLLARS ON WORTHLESS SHIT THAT DOESNT EVEN MATTER

No wonder there is so much piracy going on these days. I wouldn't touch an ipod with a six foot stick! oh well, back to the 1980's walkman i think! lol...

THATS RIGHT!!!

@MCArchangel777 yeah but how often do you come into knowing of the DRM, i personally have never had an issue in which it was a problem. Most of my music is pirated, but the little music i got off of iTunes has never given me problems

@xsonicbladex Although I will agree that Windows is by all means proprietary just like Apple, they did not invent the market on controlling your music and videos. Apple was the one who made the digital lowjack system that comes on all music downloaded from iTunes. Its their technology, made by Apple, for Apple, although the opensource people have made programs that manipulate DRM, they have not really successfully cracked the "chain" so to speak.

This is why I don't pay for downloaded stuff. I just hate if my computer broke one day and I couldn't retrieve my songs back. I have bought songs on iTunes before, but when you get a new computer, you pretty much lose them.

DRM is anything but vanishing, maybe from iTunes, but Windows Vista and Windows 7 are giant DRM hives.
"THIS" is exactly why I abandoned M$ and installed Linux a year ago. I'll be damned if I put-up with this bull-shit!!! I feel safe knowing Linux isn't calling home giving out my personal info. Scanning my media files checking for so-called legal ones??!! Crippling my hardware installing "updates" on the sly without my permission. The minute I learned of PALLADIUM I RAN to Linux!! M$ has fucking "LOST IT"! You'll have to put a gun to my head before I install Vista!
