Comment Re:Apple's iTunes DRM Dilemma? (Score 1) 282
Your logic seems broken to me. Unless you spent thousands of dollars in order to play some tv shows you bought off iTunes, I don't see how these things are related. You spent thousands of dollars on computers. These computers presumably work. To return them or refuse to buy more perfectly working computers because you did not read or understand that the tv shows you bought weren't burnable is simply idiotic.
If you were to say that you refuse to buy tv shows off iTunes due to the DRM, I'd have no troubles with your statement. However, when you refuse to purchase anything by Apple for the rest of eternity just because you bought a tv show with DRM from iTunes seems utterly moronic. Especially when others have noted that there are ways to watch your tv shows in other places besides your iMac's screen. In fact, I was under the impression that these reasons were why people would buy shows from iTunes. I buy shows from iTunes because it's cheaper than buying the dvd, I can get many episodes the day after they're aired, and I can play them easily on my iPod. I can then easily watch these episodes on my tv via iPod. Or, as others have suggested, streamed via Apple TV. P.S. It's 'their services,' not there.
