Well without trying to start a huge debate here on the theme, I see more issues with DRM that restricts me as a legal purchaser of music (granted Apple is quite good in this regard) than I do with removing DRM from tracks that I have legally purchased for my own *personal* entertainment (I'm no doubt one of the last fools to still purchase music legally but nothing winds me up more than purchasing Un-CD's (a whole topic that) that won't even play on newer CD drives let alone allow me to make AAC or MP3 files appropriate to my personal preference or listening devices...) Nothing to do with trying to spread the music...just enjoy it natural without a straight jacket... Cheers, Richard --
