While the debate on DRM issues is interesting - there are several points
that I think few people could argue with:

1. The record companies have the right (and obligation to their
shareholders) to protect the value of their assets.
2. Today, consumers have more choices than ever.  You can still buy a
CD, you can download unprotected music for a fee, you can stream music
for a fee, you can download DRM-protected music for even less. 
3. The SlimServer would be more useful to some people if it could play
DRM-protected music like that available for download from the new Yahoo
music service.

I suspect that add DRM-protected playback capability would generate
substantial sales for SlimDevices.  Right now, Roku has the big edge
here.
