I concur again! take itunes for example, tracks that you paid for, and that you own, you cannot play on anyting other than an ipod, restricting your freedoms! i think they dropped drm on most of the tracks now, or so i was told, i dont use itunes personally, so can't confirm. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jolug" group.
