Well... unfortunately it's true.

About 10% of mp3 players have ONLY not-pirated music on them. I wish more music companies would charge a little percentage of the device cost and be happy about that instead of taking all this pirating BS to court and everything... It would be much more relaxed times in the music department.

Psh, if Apple caves (not likely), I'll never buy another Universal song. I have a functional copy of BitTorrent and Limewire.

Yeah! I'm one of that 10% then. I don't think it would be as big of a problem if they dropped the DRM crap. DRM media cost more, and basical its like you don't acually fully own it, even though you payed for it. Non-DRM music can cost like $0.25 per song(emusic), not bad IMO.
