A few years ago, Apple was the only game in town. No one likes the DRM, but they made it pretty simple to work with, so lots of people don't mind it. But now with competitors offering similar catalogs and slicker interfaces, I think it's only a matter of time before Apple has to deal with this. I switched to Amazon for all my digital music this year specifically because it's DRM free.

That's all good, unless you're actually trying to sell something.
