Re:They're right (Score 1)

You, the consumers, should have no obligation to go into contract with anyone if you don't like the conditions. But the people offering stuff have exactly the same right. So if they choose to use terms like "we have the right to fuck you in the ass if you purchase this music file" then they have every right to do so and if you accept those contracts you gonna have to put up with something you most probably don't like. But this is your CHOICE.

At least in my country, there are laws meant to protect consumers from unfair contract terms and I'm pretty sure that term would be found to be unreasonable at least in conjunction with purchased music. Mind you, selling your own ass for sex voluntarily is perfectly legal over here ;)

US law does not apply in France and if Apple want to do business in France they will need to respect the local laws, which also gives them the opportunity to price and segment their offering differently. iTunes songs cost (eurosign) 0.99 in France, which is about $1.26.
